GILDED AGE MURDER MYSTERY SHOW: Gothic Garden Soiree

You have heard of the classic story of Romeo & Juliet. Perhaps you know the tale of Hatfield & McCoy. But do you know the tragic mystery behind the engagement of Mortimer Vale & Isolde Shaw?

It’s 1892. The rivalry between the Vales (Big Whale Oil) & the Shaws (Big Candle) is epic. For decades their family set the world ablaze. But, now, both risk obscurity 10 years after Edison lit up New York City with electricity. Beneath the tapestries and lush gardens, old money decays like the stone monuments built by their forebears.
