A painting by Johannes Vermeer is going “Under The Hammer” at an art auction, overseen by art detective agency the Company of International Artists. Your contacts are Agents Kahlo and Dali. But wait… mysterious intel suggests that all is not right.

The game is afoot!

Can you crack the case? Keep an eye on the details and read between the lines in this fine blend of theatre and improv, escape room and “who-dunnit”, inspired by real-world art crime cases!

As a new recruit of the Company of International Artists you’ll need to tackle puzzles, decipher codes and review key evidence to solve a case of art forgery before the culprit evades justice!

Don't forget to don your best trench coat, deerstalker or artist smock for the occasion - attendees are welcome (but not obliged) to come dressed as their favourite detective, a famous artist or a completely original sleuth persona...
