A Victorian detective game with a feminist perspective. About this
Event *New dates added for December due to huge demand!* Miss Eve
Harrison requests the pleasure of your company at Miegunyah House for
tea and games... Back from its sold-out season at Anywhere Festival in
May, Eve's Game returns to Miegunyah House for tea, feminism and
sleuthing. Enter historic Miegunyah House and step into the world of
Eve Harrison, Brisbane's it-girl of 1884. Eve has returned from her
debut in London and is inviting you to play Paschal, the
lady-detective game that is sweeping London. "There are a few
occasions when I come out of a show and cant wait to see it again.
Immediately... A must-see show that is both fun and
thought-provoking." Catherine Lawrence, Creative Futures A combination
of immersive theatre and sleuthing, Eve's Game presents a feminist
perspective on the life of a young woman in the late Victorian era.
Based on the life of a real Brisbane socialite, Eve's Game explores
rites of passage in an era of social change and emerging feminism.
Join Eve for tea on the verandah and become her apprentice detective
in the game of Paschal. Help her to investigate the disappearance of a
young woman while exploring Miegunyah, discovering clues and solving
puzzles. "Such a pleasant and intimate theatre experience...This
unique and intimate show is a cross between Downton Abbey and Enola
Holmes." Josie Montano, Theatre Travels. "Enthralling, entertaining,
enjoyable. A fantastic immersive theatre experience, where the venue
is a vital component of the performance." Catherine Lawrence, Creative
Futures Featuring Ashlea Sloman as Eve and Jo Willans as Prudence.
