MEET CHEF MARCEL BISSET 👨🍳
Hot-headed. Passionate.
And fiercely protective of his kitchen.
But tonight he received devastating news…

In a kitchen full of knives, tempers can boil over.
CLUE 5: The chef had the same menu on for months. But tonight he made a last minute sauce change.

Awk the Clown @awktheclown

So Alexander has decided the best way to get through life is by doing whatever Feisty asks. So, join your humble stage manager, and help him get a date... My god does he need one."
Red flags:
"Can’t actually manage a stage."

FOXTROT PRODUCTIONS PRESENTS BALTHAZAR VON HALSING, LEGENDARY VAMPIRE HUNTER
Played by @alexandergrieve94
Photo by @rebeesnaps
Balthazar Von Halsing is a vampire hunter who has found himself deeply involved with several vampire rulers. Was he becoming sympathetic towards vampires, or was he simply playing the long game?
Either way, someone wasn't entirely convinced and murdered Balthazar in the dead of night. Now, he is back, craving blood and justice.
Will you help Balthazar solve his own murder before the killer strikes again?
Get your tickets in bio and help unravel this mystery.

⭐️ STAGE MANAGER ANNOUNCEMENT ⭐️
No cabaret is complete or able to function without a great stage manager, and we got ourselves the best one once more.
"Behold, your obedient servant Mr Awk.
Awk was discovered by his mistress Feisty down the dark and dingy alleys of Southport, with promise of maybe a free drink if Awk was a very good boy, they leapt at the chance at helping his mistress organise a show where beautiful women take their clothes off.
Awk is a clown and performer, but for tonight, he is whatever his mistress wants them to be."
What the prophet has said:
"Even an unassuming pawn can become the most important chess piece if used right. This one has all the qualities of royalty within them waiting to be unlocked at the right moment."
If only they told us how. I guess we'll never know. Or will we?
Come find out just how important this creature is for our entire operation on the 14th of November.
Tickets in bio.
