How it works

Five steps

  1. 10 minThe crime scene opens

    Anna introduces the story and the four suspects, and each team receives its investigation box.

  2. 20 minThe first lead

    Two songs are performed live. The teams open envelope 1 and test the suspects’ alibis against the hidden messages in the songs.

  3. 25 minNew evidence and motives

    Two new songs with crucial clues. Envelope 2 is opened, and motives and relationships come to a head.

  4. 15 minThe deliberation

    The teams piece it all together, work out the motive, name the culprit and hand in their arrest warrant.

  5. 10 minThe reveal

    Anna performs the final song, the truth comes out and the murderer is revealed. The sharpest team of detectives is celebrated.
