‘The Madison Men Murders’ - Murder Mystery Events Exclusive to Bureau Club & Red Bar

2010-11-25T02:20:00.000-08:00

Who did it? Find out at Bureau Club & Red Bar

Red Bar, Soho, and Bureau Club, London; two of London’s leading independent bars and clubs just off Regents Street have introduced a selection of Mad Men themed ideas from décor to event packages to cocktail menus. Now its time to dust off your evening suit and step into the ego driven 1960’s world of Madison Avenue’s cut throat advertising era where the key players make an art of the sell, and for one night- murder!

The events see a gathering of a select few from the Swirling Hooper Drooper & Bryce Advertising Agency and guests to celebrate the winning of a very substantial new client. But all is not well in the cool world of Swirling Hooper Drooper and Bryce. Jealousy, envy, blackmail, bankruptcy, dodgy past lives and sordid affairs are lying just beneath the veneer of this young throbbing ad agency and it is all about to erupt into a fun packed event of intrigue, shiny suits, pointy bosoms and death!

Almost at once there is a passionate out-burst, a death and a detective removing a disguise to interrogate cast and guest alike. Everyone is a suspect, no one is safe! Nobody leaves the building until the dastardly deed is solved and as the plot is revealed everyone will be dying with laughter!

The Madison Men Murders will give you an opportunity to find the team players in your midst, identify the people who have hidden depths and sort out the juniors from the directors. What better setting than the heart of London Soho in two stunning venues where Mad Men inspired cocktails including the Don Draper Cocuba and the Tender Betty are on the extensive cocktail menu?

The murder mystery events are produced by Ruby Snape Events, a leading agency in team building and murder mystery events for corporate and private clients. The events can be designed in two capacities; a drinks reception or a sit down dinner where the focus is on non stop entertainment from beginning to end. The interaction between the events team and the guests at the event is seamless and smooth running of the event brings the Madison Men Murders to life.

The events are bespoke and tailored around each client and the two venues are the only venues in the UK offering these events.

Says Ruby Snape; “When I heard there were two London venues leading the way with Mad Men inspired interiors and cocktails I knew I had come across a totally unique concept that would appeal to today’s discerning party guest- whether corporate or private. Red Bar has been going for over 10 years and has a following that reads like a who’s who that fancies Don Draper whilst Bureau Club looks like the ideal venue to meet the perfect Peggy businesswoman looking to live and love a little more!”

The detective is on his way- Don and Peggy are waiting, where are you?

Guilt Free Mad Men Cocktails at Red Bar Soho

2010-11-11T03:36:00.000-08:00

Red Bar, Soho, one of London’s leading independent bars just off Regents Street is gearing up for a guilt free Christmas with the launch of Mad Men style cocktails and Christmas packages inspired by the TV drama about a prestigious ad agency where everyone lives for moment and enjoys every move or sip they take.

The cocktails, now available on the menu include the Don Draper Cocuba which includes Frangelico, Chocolate Liqueur, Havana Especial and Coconut Rum stirred over ice and strained into a frozen martini glass. Definitely a drink for the confident adult and not one for the faint hearted. The Tender Betty includes homemade Vanilla sugar caramelized with a drop of Absinthe, some fresh Grapefruit and ginger muddled with the finest Tanqueray No. 10, served straight up for that right here right now feeling! Other cocktails include the Rocky Roger and For Pete’s Sake all of which are priced at £8.50.

For those ready to strut and show what they are made of the Red Amex priced at £120.00 and designed for two includes a brown sugar cube dissolved with Courvoisier XO and Cointreau, spiked with Laurent Perrier Rose Champagne. The remaining bottle is then to be enjoyed into the evening. The ultimate in Mad Men decadence!

Red Bar is the ideal location in the heart of London for all manner of events from product launches to Christmas parties and these new Mad Men inspired cocktails will surely arouse excitement at a time when organisations need and deserve it the most. Referencing the early years of mass consumerism where ad men were revered, the cocktails and accompanying menu allow guests to enjoy a sophisticated evening in the heart of London’s ad land.

Red Bar which has recently had a light rejuvenation with new seating areas can accommodate guests ranging from small groups to exclusive use. The basement bar and dance floor comes alive at weekends but during the week it can suitably become a Mad Men ‘Boardroom’ for meetings, interviews and receptions.

Once you are suitably in role as one of the compelling characters why not head to Red Bar’s sister venue; Bureau Club literally next door to the bar. Bureau Club takes sophistication to a whole new level. One of London’s best kept secrets, the club references elegance and each corner of the club is both chic and sexy. The cocktail menu here along with your perfect night at Red Bar will lead you to want to step back in time into advertising whilst living the Mad Men dream!

For an unflinching take on Christmas book Red Bar & Bureau Club now for your event and step into a guilt free world!
