Don your mask, lace up your finest frock, and prepare for an evening of intrigue, illusion and ill-fated love – because the bard himself is calling you to Catherine McAuley College for a night like no other.
On Saturday 21 June, the CMC Murder Mystery will whisk guests away to 16th-century Verona, where a grand masquerade ball is being held to celebrate the union of Juliet Capulet and the mysterious Count Erfit. But as history has shown – where there are masks, there may also be murder.
This adults-only soirée promises an evening dripping in drama and decadence, with guests assigned their secret identities on arrival. Will you be a Capulet, celebrating in splendour? Or a Montague, crashing the party in disguise? You’ll find out when you enter the grand hall.
Amid the candlelight and whispers, one thing is certain – a crime will unfold, and you’ll be part of the story to uncover who’s behind it. Was it a jealous suitor? A bitter cousin? Or a love-struck rogue with vengeance in their heart?
Your ticket includes a welcome drink, a lavish three-course meal catered by Sinful Kitchen, and a night of captivating entertainment. There will be a bar onsite with drink tokens available for pre-purchase to keep the revelry flowing.
Costumes of all kinds are welcome – just don’t forget your mask. After all, in Verona, nothing is quite what it seems.
So rally your fellow nobles (tables seat ten), dust off your cloak, and prepare to step into Shakespeare’s world – where passion burns bright, secrets run deep, and not everyone makes it out alive.
Only five tables remain, and tickets are disappearing faster than Romeo at curfew.
