This Hallow’s Eve, the Bright Young Things invite you to a rip-roaring, jazz infused party to end all parties!
But wait. Is there more to this group of beautiful beings than meets the eye? Rumour has it there have been shrieks in the night and rum deals being played out. A detective has been called. Could this thrilling celebration turn out to be just a little bit toxic?
Join us as we turn the golden age of crime on its head, exploring the favoured method of murder for crime writers through the ages – poison. We’ll need you to bring your little grey cells to grill the finest experts in the land on the medicinal roots and lethal charm behind that little green bottle, all whilst celebrating the real science behind your most loved whodunnits.
For this sparkling new addition to our Thackray Lates series, expect our usual evening blend of expert talks and hands-on demonstrations, served with a side of gorgeous glamour and some distinctly deadly goings on.
We invite you to embrace the mood of the evening by donning your finest 1920s themed glad rags for the occasion (though modern day dress is very much acceptable too!).
Thackray Lates is our new series of adult-only evening events taking place across 2024. Join us as we explore unusual topics and unheard stories with the help of special guests, hands-on experiences, medical experiments, performances and more. Due to the nature of the event, these are experience tickets (so annual passes and other museum tickets are not valid). This event is recommended for those aged 18+. Please note there will be alcohol available at this event.
