Join us for an immersive and interactive murder mystery night hosted by Mizzou Hospitality Management Capstone students and Eclipse Catering and Events. Step into the seedy underworld of 1920s gangsters, flappers, and bootleggers at Cherry’s Speakeasy, with the mystery presented by Jest Murder Mystery. The ongoing turf war between the Corneolis and the Buttafuccos is heating up, and just when things seem to be cooling down, infamous mobster Harry Hyde makes his entrance. But Harry doesn’t last long, and when he’s found dead, the night takes a dangerous turn.
As a guest at this exclusive speakeasy, you’ll rub shoulders with shady characters like Red E. Mix, the local concrete salesman, Trixie, the owner of Cherry’s, and Joey “The Lips.” But when the bullets start flying, everyone’s a suspect. Could it have been Larry “The Rug,” Joey “The Lips,” or maybe J. Edna Hoover who pulled the trigger on Harry Hyde?
