The Speakeasy Murder at Chenault Vineyards
The Speakeasy Murder
By Jeff Roberts
It's 1929 in Chicago. The gin joint is in full swing. The roarin' twenties have been roarin' for years now, and women have become more assertive and open.
Frannie the Flapper has come into ownership of The Polyester Club under somewhat suspicious circumstances. It is one of the most popular clubs around. Her doorman and lover, Nick Nack, helps keep the booze flowing by bootlegging and keeping the riffraff out.
Frannie’s singer and dancer, Vikki "Legs" McGee, brings in the regulars who want to see this hotsy-totsy hoofer in action. One of her favorites is the down-and-out private detective, Mickey Spillsalot. He's been coming to the club for years now. The only kind of case he works on now is a case of the hard stuff.
No club would be complete without a saucy waitress serving up the drinks and sass. Chickie Dee fills that bill just fine.
See what shenanigans occur when these molls and dolls get together at The Polyester Club.
Tickets:
$65 per person.
Includes dinner and the show.
