Speakeasy Society Family Meal@Mid-City ★★

Fun Immersion Theater-Dining Experience. No spoilers here. Audience integrated. Nice meal. Fun to engage with the audience and be part of the story. It'd be fun for the audience who's able to guess the ending correctly to raffle for a prize, like a $10 gift card. $325 plus platform fees per person with theater experience & dinner included. $60 additional for Wine Pairing (small pours). Reservation required. Street parking around the blocks.
