Music, Motives & Murder, a 1950s Murder Mystery
The Year: 1959
The setting: A glamorous cocktail party hosted by Albert Edwards, Managing Director of EMI Records, and his wife Evelyn. The guestlist includes high-flying executives, rising stars and industry insiders – but beneath the glitz, tensions simmer.
The scenario: Step back in time to the dazzling world of the 1950s entertainment industry, where sharp suits, the rise of Rock ‘n Roll music, and cutthroat ambition collide. Hosted and performed by Bristol Musical Theatre, this fully immersive murder mystery plunges guests into a night of cocktails, canapés… and carefully concealed secrets.
As the evening unfolds, so does the drama — and at least one person won’t make it out alive. Will you spot the subtle clues? Can you unravel the motives? Mingle with suspects, piece together the plot, and accuse the culprit before the final curtain falls.
