Welcome to Quizzicool's Murder Mystery Events.
We will make a drama out of a crime!!
A diabolical crime has occurred on Inspector Jager's patch. She will give you a story, statements and clues. Do you have what it takes to crack the crime?
6 people from the audience, who are willing to act, will join Inspector Jager in performing a playlet.
After the performance, everybody receives a copy of the story and the clues circulate the teams. Throughout the event, Inspector Jager will be on hand to answer questions. Ask her the right questions and she will give you the answers you need to solve the crime.
When everyone has completed their score sheets, Inspector Jager awards the winners with a prize and a certificate.
Then the Inspector will tell everyone the story as it really happened.....

*************************************************
Quizzicool Murder Mysteries are perfect for smaller venues and ideally suited for parties of between 8 and 80.
If none of the guests are willing to perform, Inspector Jager will give you a resume of the Murder and then give out stories to the guests. The only things that guests must be willing to do is use their ‘little grey cells’.
We would be happy to discuss your requirements with you. Stories can be commissioned or altered to meet a theme (especially if you want an excuse to dress up)
Sessions are available daytime or evenings.
Choose your story.....
Each 'Quizzicool' Murder Mystery is written by writer and performer, Jo Jager.
The stories have a variety of themes. You don't have to dress up, but the opportunity is there if you so wish.
You can also commission a story. All you have to do is tell us the theme, characters etc and we'll do the rest.
