Description

Plot Professor Champel, a renowned physician, researcher and Head of Surgery at the Sacré-Bleu Clinic, claims to have made a breakthrough destined to revolutionize medicine and forever transform the future of hospital care. After decades of research conducted in the utmost secrecy, he is finally ready to unveil his findings. To celebrate the occasion, he has organized an exclusive gala dinner at Villa Freundler, inviting Geneva's most influential personalities. But behind the prestige, the toasts and the solemn promises lie hidden interests, old grudges and dangerous secrets that someone is willing to protect at any cost.   How it works Between courses, six actors will bring to life a classic murder mystery filled with interrogations, suspects, and unexpected revelations. Each table will become its own investigative team. During the first four scenes, you'll discover the characters, motives, and clues. At the end of each scene, every table will receive, via WhatsApp, pieces of evidence to examine, discuss, and compare. Before the final scene, each team will complete an investigation file, reconstructing the ending and identifying who they believe is the murderer. Which investigative team will come closest to solving the case? The flavours of Italian cuisine, the magic of live theatre, and the thrill of a murder investigation: all the ingredients for a truly unforgettable Saturday night.   DINNER Dinner will be freshly prepared and served on site by a professional catering team and includes beverages (water, red and white wine, and Coca-Cola). When booking, you may choose between two different menus:   1) Classic Menu Appetizer Rustic Tomato & Basil Bruschettas Selection of Italian Cured Meats Tomato & Mozzarella with Origan ​ First Course Traditional Lasagna with Meat Ragù ​ Second Course Crispy Porchetta with Oven-Roasted Potatoes   Dessert Tiramisù   Digestif Amaro Averna Amaro del Capo Amaro Montenegro Limoncello     2) Vegetarian Menu Appetizer Rustic Tomato & Basil Bruschettas Mediterrean Grilled Vegetables Tomato & Mozzarella with Origan ​ First Course Pesto Lasagna with Potatoes, Green Beans & Pine Nuts   Second Course   Zucchini & Eggs Flan with Pecorino Fondue and Oven-Roasted Potatoes   Dessert Tiramisù   Digestif Amaro Averna Amaro del Capo Amaro Montenegro Limoncello       For more information: https://www.associazionepontdart.com/spettacoli/delitto-a-villa-freundler
