Murder Mystery Dining: Death On the Ganges

  • Show Information

What could be more exciting than a cruise on the River Ganges in the summer of 1935? An odd assortment of passengers boarded the steamship as it headed up the river, and they settled quickly into their luxurious accommodation. It seemed the perfect way to experience the cultural and natural beauty of India.

However, their enjoyment was short lived because, ten days into the journey, a body was found under the pier in Sahibganj. It was clear that the death was no accident. They were lucky enough to have on board a seasoned investigator who quickly took charge until the official police could board the vessel further up the river and take over the case.

The investigator now calls on the other travellers to help him in identifying the killer. All the clues will be there to lead to discovery of the guilty party, but will they be correctly deduced? The investigator is determined to get to the truth before the evening is out!


Your ticket includes a delectable platter of continental meats, mozzarella with pesto, olives, sundried tomatoes, salad, coleslaw, and chutney accompanied by various breads. This will be followed by a dessert of theatre favourites, popcorn and ice cream.
