Anniversary Celebration: Murder Mystery Dinner!

We’re saving the biggest and best of our Living Library events for last! Enjoy a wonderful 4 course meal prepared by our Chef while discussing clues to find out the most important thing in any mystery: who dunnit?!

Not only is it the finale to our first Living Library Series; it’s the 25th anniversary of The Atrium, the Independent Living Apartments that are just above Club 120. So it’s going to be a very special evening.

Sometime during the evening’s festivities, a guest will be murdered, and you’ll have to figure out who has done the dastardly deed. After all, it was someone in the room, and if you don’t figure out who-dunnit, the cops might think it was you! Don’t worry; we understand one of the guests is a detective, so help is close at hand.

 

The Setting: The Club 120 Cellar Pub, a jazz-era banquet hall of the 1920s.

YES, wear your finest flapper dresses and zoot suits for the occasion, or at least a dress or jacket and tie; dress nicely for dinner.

Meet our guest of honor, celebrated and internationally renowned spiritual medium Miss Vivian Starling.
