About

It is 1912 - the Titanic has set sail, and you are welcomed aboard as one of our esteemed first class passengers. You find a seat in one of the ship’s luxurious lounges - the Trail Sisters - and sit back, refreshments in hand, to enjoy the journey.

Your moment of respite is cut short by shocking news that a murder has been committed on the ship. It is up to you to find out who killed the victim! You must question the suspects and review chilling evidence to find out who had the motive, means, and opportunity to commit such a grievous act. Will YOU solve the murder?

Our professional team of actors will immerse you in a true Titanic experience with dramatic skits and performances, up close interactions and compelling improvisation. We encourage Victorian or evening attire to help you feel even more part of the story. We promise our “ship on rails” will NOT sink this evening!

One free beverage and snack tray will be served. Favors will be awarded to the guests who solve the crime AND to the best dressed guest!
