Murder Mystery Dining: The Body in Barcelona

  • Show Information

It was to have been a pleasant short break for David Lancaster, a trip to Barcelona with close friends looking, perhaps, to enjoy a walk through Las Ramblas, have some time to explore the narrow streets of the old city, admire the Sagrada Familia, visit the famous Güell Park or even spend some time at the beach. However, the trip turned into a nightmare when, early one morning, just a few short days ago, the body of David Lancaster was found slumped on a bench in the Palau de la Musica. He had been murdered.

Detective Chief Inspector Appleby of Scotland Yard was flown over to assist the Spanish police, and he had already begun his preliminary investigations. He determined that he had four key suspects, and he has arranged to meet them all at a restaurant in the old town.

As he questions his suspects it becomes clear that there are long buried secrets, as tensions between those present increase. Who was responsible for David Lancaster’s death? And Why? Detective Chief Inspector Appleby, with the help of the other guests in the restaurant, is determined to get to the truth before the day is out.


Ticket price includes pizza and dessert.
