Hi Jess & Team, I just wanted to send a huge thank you to you all for Saturday evening. You were absolutely amazing from start to finish and honestly made my birthday so special. My guests had such an incredible time and everyone kept talking about how fun, engaging and well put together the experience was. It was genuinely a phenomenal way to celebrate my 30th birthday and I’m so glad I chose you for the evening. Thank you again for all your hard work, energy and professionalism throughout the event. I’ll absolutely be booking with you again in future and will definitely be recommending and sharing your details with my friends and family. Thanks again for helping create such a memorable evening ❤️ Kind regards, Maudleen

Booked for Private party

We had a brilliant murder mystery evening to celebrate my husband’s 50th birthday. The evening went really smoothly and Phil kept us all on track and helped to prompt us with our characters and information we needed to share on the evening. He was also very discreet when we all sat and ate dinner and his timings were very helpful to enable us to plan the different courses. We have tried similar evenings without a host and this was so much better! Everyone had a fantastic time and I would highly recommend Phil if you are thinking of hosting an event too.

Booked for Corporate Function

Phil and his murder mystery actors put on an absolutely outstanding show! From the moment the performance began, the cast had the entire audience hooked with their sharp timing, clever humor, and immersive storytelling. Each actor brought their character to life with charisma and skill, making every twist and turn feel exciting and unpredictable. Phil’s direction was spot-on—well-paced, creative, and full of delightful surprises. The interactive elements were especially fun, keeping everyone engaged and guessing right up to the final reveal. It’s clear that the cast works incredibly well together and takes real pride in delivering a top-tier experience. If you’re looking for an entertaining, smart, and thoroughly enjoyable murder mystery performance, Phil and his team are truly exceptional. Highly recommended!

Booked for Birthday party

We booked Phil for a unique birthday party, and he hosted a fantastic murder mystery event with excellent communication and attention to detail. Phil provided thorough character briefs, kept everyone engaged, and was flexible with the evening’s timing. Our guests had a fantastic time, everyone was laughing, fully immersed in their roles, and talking about the evening long after it ended. If you’re looking for something different, this is highly recommended for a unique and fun experience!

Booked for Birthday party

We did the 1920s murder mystery as part of my 30th birthday celebrations. It was a lot of fun and well organised and Phil put up with our woeful memories! Pacing was good and it was serious without being too serious which kept it light a fun. My guests had a great time. The only tiny bit I think could be improved is when the murder is caught, it would have been great to have had them "arrested" and marched out to end the game with some theatrics but that's a tiny little detail. Was very enjoyable and would recommend!

Booked for Birthday party

Such a brilliant evening with Andy and his team! Don’t want to give too much away because the element of surprise made this even better but they came to host the main event for my 30th birthday party with 60 guest and it was brilliant. I was made aware the show would be interactive but I was blown away but how interactive it all was and how well they handled some drunk heckling throughout! Prior to the event communication couldn’t have been stronger and they catered to every request/need - They also gave a selection of shows to pick from and advised what would be best to incorporate some fancy dress which added to the excitement and brilliance of the night Will definitely be using them again when we get the opportunity!!

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
