FAQ’s

So how does it work?

We describe the evening as interactive entertainment – where guests are part of the show whilst watching the show all at the same time. There is a cast of six who perform throughout the dinner. Guests are encouraged to play their own character as much or as little as they choose – it is entirely upto them.

How do I know what my character will be?

Once your booking is confirmed you will be sent details of yours and other characters by email. If you are booking for a party of people the lead guest will be asked to distribute the information within their party. We encourage guests to read the information prior to the event and plan their attire for the evening appropriately. Click to the costume page for further guidance.
