It’s the roaring twenties, and you have been invited to the hottest nightclub in town. It’s also a big night at the Rotten Club, and everyone is up to no good. Early Demis, the club owner, is on edge because Mr. Big has come to check out the joint, and make sure Early is making his backers money. Early’s headline-and sometimes girlfriend, Bette-is scheduled to sing, but she's too busy making eyes at the guests to perform. To make matters worse, Early’s wife has decided that tonight is the night to end Early’s extracurricular activities.
The day will begin with a tour at Byer’s Choice followed by the Murder Mystery Lunch at Cock N’ Bull Restaurant and time to shop in Peddler's Village.
