Brief:
Hymans Robertson, a prestigious company providing actuarial consultancy services, wanting to entertain a client group of pension fund managers asked G&T to source an 'undiscovered' venue and provide a murder mystery entertainment for their guests.
Solution:
G&T has long experience with the unusual. We suggested the Foundling Museum in Brunswick Square, Bloomsbury. The Museum, over three floors, provided a perfect venue and a site meeting with the client confirmed that this was the perfect location for the event envisaged by the client.
A gently bespoked Murder On The Menu was chosen: "The Butler Did It" and, as the Museum has a fine collection of Handel's original manuscripts, we ensured that the cabaret included several musical allusions to the great man's music.
Result: A delighted client and equally happy guests judging by the feedback received to read their comments.
Sequel: Hymans Robertson wanted a unique presence at the Professional Pensions Show 2005.
Their exhibition stand was designed as a detective’s office and a Murder On The Menu mystery was created to underscore the company’s values.
For two days at ExCel pension scheme trustees and actuaries actually sang along and laughed out loud in the middle of a very serious exhibition. Hymans Robertson gave everyone who joined in an invisible ink pen(!) and made lots of good friends…
