Immersive means that the environment is designed to deliver an all-encompassing experience; from the moment you enter the UCC Staff Common Room, it will feel as if you have been transported back in time to 1950s London. The event will feature a small drinks reception and special appearance by members of the UCC Orchestra Society.Â
You need only interact as much as you are comfortable - the level of immersion is entirely in your hands. You can interact and engage or simply sit back and watch as the actors bring the story to life all around you. If you prefer to observe from the side-lines, nobody will mind. But, if you believe you could provide some assistance in solving the murder, you may have an opportunity to do so!
We also encourage attendees to dress for the event. Smart dress is strongly encouraged (this is a retirement function after all!), but in addition, a spot prize will be awarded for the audience member who best captures the style of the 1950s each night. So, don't be afraid to commit and get creative!
