My fingers still have some paint residue on them as I reach out to complete a hand-holding circle around a duo in the midst of a boxing match. Through guided slow breaths and rhythmic squats we watch as both characters punch, dodge or, every so often, land a hit. We have tapped into our primal […]
Imagine taking the classic whodunit board game Clue and turning it into a fun night of puzzle-solving and eliminating suspects. That’s what you’re in for when you experience Vote for Murder, one of the better immersive ‘game’ events in recent years. After nearly having their entire event murdered by unexpected problems with their original site, […]
