Fun historical murder mystery - We had a great time! It was less like a play and more like a home murder mystery game, but with great clues and lots of fun.

Laughs and libations! - Very enjoyable evening. Met some great people and had a fun time. Built around solving a crime, based around actual historical events in New Orleans’ old red light district. Laughs and libations in a relaxed and fun atmosphere. So very enjoyable.

Confusing with the actors - The actors are the participants, so if people aren't great actors you don't get all the information you need to solve the mystery. It was okay, for the price I paid.

Not for me - Up two flights of stairs, I felt this was a fire trap. The “humor” started with mocking God. The plot was too complicated so it seemed like work. Other customers enjoyed the game. I did not.
