Solve A Murder Over Cocktails And Clues At Mystery At The Museum

You showed up for a night out at Eleven. What you didn’t expect is spending it solving a murder, alongside your team, before the night is over. One moment the room is full of easy conversation, and the next, you’re sizing up strangers, wondering who in the room is lying to your face. Nobody tells you the rules going in. You just have to pay attention.

Dinner With a Deadly Twist

The night starts off easy, with a welcome cocktail and hearty hors d’oeuvres. Then a guest dies under suspicious circumstances, and everyone in the room becomes a suspect. Your ticket includes a drink and refreshments, so you’re settled in before things take a turn.

Gather Clues, Test Alibis, Solve The Crime

In small groups, you and your team move through the museum to hear each suspect’s story. You’ll gather clues, poke holes in alibis, and weigh motives as you build your case. Once you’re back in Eleven, you cast your vote for who you think did it and watch the drama play out.

What To Wear And Who’s Behind It

Cocktail attire is encouraged, so leave the jeans at home and dress like you belong at a scene this dramatic. The evening is presented in partnership with NWA Theatre Collective, so expect the suspects to bring some real acting chops to their alibis.

Groups stay small, so every guest gets real face time with the suspects instead of getting lost in a crowd.
