About

A HILARIOUS "WHODUNNIT"

Guests are invited to the "Opening Night" of the Ohio Theatre in 1927. They are treated to a vaudeville show and delicious food. But of course, something goes wrong and everyone is left figuring out "whodunnit"

The Fatal Follies of '27 is an immersive audience participation experience. Throughout the evening guests are transported back in time to the days of jazz, vaudeville, and bathtub gin. The play takes place throughout the building and guests are encouraged to eavesdrop on secret conversations, interrogate suspects and figure out the mystery!

DOORS TO THE THEATRE OPEN AT 6:30PM.

However, you may queue up ahead of time. The show begins the moment you enter the building. (And maybe even before!)

There is NO ASSIGNED SEATING for this show. All tickets are general admission, since you will be moving about the building throughout the evening.

Although it is 1927 and alcoholic spirits are illegal, the bar will be open! We recommend bringing CASH for the bar in order to speed up transactions, however credit cards are, of course, accepted as usual.

Food will be served until approximately 7:45. But, murder can happen at any moment!

Feel free to come dressed in your best 1920's outfit! It is not required to dress in costume, but it is more fun!

Please Note: There will be NO SHOW ONLY tickets sold for the Fatal Follies of '27. The food is part of the experience!

FATAL FOLLIES RULES

1. You will receive your "invitation" upon arrival. Read your invitation. Know it's contents! Get caught without it and you may be subject to interrogation!

2. Do NOT stay in a seat. Get up and move around! The play is happening throughout the building. Many scenes take place simultaneously. You cannot see it all in one performance.

3. Do NOT stand in, or follow a character through a closed doorway, curtains or to the second floor! It is dangerous! Murder is afoot!

4. If a character asks you to dance, DANCE with them. You may get information to help you solve the mystery!

5. Be brave! Act on your choices with conviction! Follow your impulses!

6. Following only ONE or TWO characters around will yield more order! If you just "wander around" you will lose the thread of the story you are creating!

7. If you are here with friends, SPLIT UP! Several sources of clues are better than one! Interrogate those around you. Compare notes!

8. Watch the stories or watch the watchers! Either way, get involved!

9. You may ask the characters questions, but be warned, THEY MAY LIE TO YOU !

10. If you have seen the show before keep your mouth shut and your ears open! You may be surprised what a different story you'll experience!

11. You could see this show at every performance and never experience the same story! Choose a different character each time you come!
