Murder at the Gonville | Murder at the Diner

In the sleepy town of Chinquapin Parish, Louisiana, simple life trundles along at a snail's pace where everyone knows everyone and everyone's business... 

Or do they?

In 1986, the day starts as just another Sunday at Mel's Diner - deliveries are delivered, diners dine and waitresses wait - but when one of the locals is killed, the investigation begins to uncover a smorgasbord of secrets and motives. Murder and intrigue are accompanied by delicious pie, classic 80s' tunes and wrapped up in good ol' fashioned southern hospitality.

Tickets - £50pp including a 2 course meal and arrival drink.
