«Agatha & Christie's» - murder mystery dinner with a twist
Are you also a fan of murder mystery dinners, but have you ever found yourself at a macabre event that ended with skeptical side-eyes? Maybe because the characters were portrayed in a clichéd, sexist, or discriminatory way. That’s exactly where we come in: We’re putting an end to that! We've created a murder mystery dinner with a twist. The aua team developd the plot themselves and made sure the story avoids stereotypical roles or exclusionary dialogue. You’re cordially invited to solve a murder! Together with the other participants, you’ll try to figure out what happened, and, first of all, who’s behind the murder. As the mystery is solved piece by piece, the final meal is served. After purchasing your ticket and three weeks before the event, you will be assigned a role. Prepare well for your role, otherwise we won’t be able to solve the case!

Content Notes
This event is a fictional murder mystery set in a playful environment. While it includes themes of crime, deception, and interpersonal conflict, we are committed to creating a space that is respectful, inclusive, and safe for all participants. Please remember that murder mystery games are just that - a game!
The trick to doing well at a murder mystery dinner is to talk to people. Characters have their own objectives, information, and secrets, and solving the mystery requires conversation. You may need to convince others to help you accomplish your goals, which often involves negotiation—since others will likely want something in return. Please approach these interactions with care and respect. Keep roleplay playful and consensual, and avoid invasive or uncomfortable behaviour toward other participants.
All characters are fictional and developed without reliance on stereotypes. We consciously avoid reductive or harmful representations related to identity, background, or profession. Avoid making assumptions about other players’ identities or experiences.
A designated host is available throughout the event. If you experience discomfort or have concerns, please approach them at any time. The event is designed for an adult audience.
