Performed within Troubadour Wembley Park’s fine-dining restaurant Studio 5ive, Waiter, There’s a Murder in my Soup! is a comedy murder mystery dining experience – there will be lots of laughs, fabulous food and just a hint of homicide.
It’s 1946, and the grand opening night of a performance by venerated prima donna the Marchioness du Jour.

Over the course of dinner, renowned detective Susan Gusset and her fellow diners must race against time to unmask a killer. Don your finest 1940s glad rags and join Detective Susan Gusset for a three-course meal and a healthy serving of crime.
