Durham has an unusually high proportion of people who moved here for work or study, so a milestone birthday guest list is often people from three different chapters who have never overlapped. Left alone, they will not mix.
1. A private murder mystery party
Ours, and first because it forces the chapters together in the best possible way. Everyone gets a character and a secret.
We come to your venue — a house in Trinity Park, a hall, a private room at the American Tobacco Campus.
2. A private dining room
Downtown Durham has genuinely excellent restaurants with good rooms for twenty to forty.
3. A brewery buyout
A strong scene at fair value. Better for a younger, drinking crowd.
4. A backyard party
Excellent in spring and autumn, humid in July and August.
5. A Bulls game outing
A genuine local institution, cheap and sociable. Everyone faces the same direction.
6. A day at Duke Gardens
Free and beautiful. Very much a daytime option.
7. A cocktail or cooking class
Good for twelve to twenty-five and indoors.
8. A house party with something planned
Cheapest and most flexible. Needs a plan or the chapters of your life stay separate.
If your guest list is three chapters of your life that have never met, We bring the host, the storyline and every piece of the game to your venue, and we ask for about 45 days so it can be staffed and prepared properly. Pricing and availability shows what your guest count works out to, you can book a date directly, and the contact page reaches a person if you would rather talk it through first.
