Speakeasy

This was a busy weekend for us. Friday evening Journee and I went to a ‘Speakeasy Party.’ These types of parties came about in the 20s during prohibition. The party was lots of fun but keeping up the acting was difficult.

I have always wanted to dress up as a flapper and this was my chance though Journee looked much cuter than I.

Everyone looked great and we had such a blast.

Here’s the plot to the murder mystery party:

Tess (played by Christine the lady in red) works for a guy named Rey (not pictured) who throws this party at his new club, The Crimson Pear. Rey ends up being murdered and we (the partygoers) have to find out who did it. We were given fake money to bribe people with for clues.

Everyone had a great time and in the end, after all the bribing, we found out it was Jack Archer, Rey’s right-hand man (played by Ronald Stauffer the man in black).

Journee had a great time playing her role as Molly and orphan child who worked at The Crimson Pear as a shoeshiner and singer/dancer. My role was that of Sharon Singleton, a woman of great money, though no one know where it came from. I drove the getaway car in a bank robbery and got money from that.

We all had a good time and look forward to our next murder mystery party.
