Poetry as F‽ck and Interrobang‽ cordially invite you to The Ambassador's Reception – a murder mystery in spoken word form, set in the extended Ferrero Rocher universe. This is a place where the suspects accuse and defend themselves in verse and prose, as the audience look on as if guests at an ambassadorial event. The dress code is formal. The event is immersive. The entrées are deadly.
Featuring some of the brightest talent in the Scottish literary scene, The Ambassador's Reception was inspired by the ancient art of flyting, crap Nineties advertising, and a really intense game of Cluedo.
Witness a unique event at the bar of one of Scotland's up-and-coming breweries, and see if you can work out who the murderer is.
