Gossip, treachery & murder at an upscale party…

Backstory

You and your guests have been invited to the mansion of a Vaudeville Circuit Owner, Mr. Harvey Goodtime. At this party he will have performers give one last audition before he finalizes the show roster for his 1921 traveling show. The luminaries of the town have been invited and for some families, the stakes are high.

Murder!

Things take a turn for the deadly when a gangster shows up who is in the employment of the notorious B. D. Fink, a man obsessed with controlling all of Vaudeville by buying up all the local circuits and theatres by whatever means necessary. Will the gangster be the murderer or the one murdered? Or will Harvey Goodtime be targeted before he can sellout to Fink? This story can break any number of ways given how badly some performers and their families need to make the final cut.

Solving the Mystery

A new and brooding Chief of Police and his ambitious Lieutenant will have to sort things out! But, do they have their own separate agendas? You must sort out the clues and solve the case.

Something new, there will be trained performers auditioning live in this party. A show within the show.
