Secret Cinema 21
Secret Location
Reviewed on Sunday 20th April 2014
Dodgy dealings, bribery and adultery. These are just a few things the citizens of Beaumont City have to deal with on a regular basis.
Dressed in our finest 1920s attire, we arrived at the secret location with no idea what to expect. What we got was quite unexpected - we were completely immersed in the story and got so involved that we were mistaken for actors on several occasions.
I evaded arrest three times, made an enemy of the mayor and switched my allegiance on several occasions. We were even ordered to go hunting for muscle, with hilarious responses including "Sorry I can't, I'm waiting for my pregnant wife..." We also ended up carrying out a task for our final boss just as the film started - we felt very important!
The decoration was excellent and the actors were superb - they dealt with everything that was thrown at them and had answers for everything. They flirted and cajoled and double crossed, but we gave as good as we got... and I ended up with about $10,000 at the end of the night!
The only real criticism I have is that it wasn't particularly clear how the evening worked and we had to figure it out as we went along, so we missed out on a few things. We were also enjoying ourselves so much that we were actually disappointed when it was time for the film!
However, I would recommend it to everyone, as long as you get involved and ask questions. Create a character for yourself and be bold. Just make sure you wear comfortable shoes (we had to do a lot of running and dancing - all in heels) and take everything you need... if you don't it might hold you back!
