Step into a glamorous 1920s whodunnit at Rippon Lea — where your choices shape the mystery and no two shows are the same.
You’re invited to the Rippon Lea Estate Ballroom for an afternoon of high tea … and murder!
Melbourne's award-winning Murder Village is proud to present Murder in the Mansion, a comedic improvised 1920s whodunnit set against the immersive backdrop of a heritage-listed mansion. The jazzy strains of the Charleston may have set the beat of the 1920s, but in this show it’s your suggestions that determines who lives, who dies, and who is unmasked as the killer.
This off-the-cuff Agatha Christie-style mystery features some of the funniest improvisers in the country. Can you outsmart them and solve the case?
