The Wedding: A 1920s Murder Mystery

Date: Oct 18 - 7 pm

Venue: Crowne Plaza Beijing International Airport

Price: RMB 398

Murder & Marriage in 1926: An interactive murder mystery written by Hannah Mills and Anthony Barnao. It's the year 1926, and Britain is going through an exciting time of change; flappers and socialites clash with the traditional morality of high society and old money. The city of Chester is buzzing about the upcoming nuptials at the family estate of Lord and Lady Chester, which will see the union of Lady Charlotte Wellesley to the wealthy stockbroker, Mr Arthur Bryant. However, not all is as it seems with the family and the guests, as someone has discovered a secret that they're just dying to share.
