A 1920s art deco-style illustration of a man and woman, from the shoulders up, facing each other in profile, in an intimate moment. The man wears a white tie and black jacket, and has a streak of white along the temple of his black hair. The woman has red and blonde streaked hair, with a flower in it and she holds a long cigarette holder, the smoke curling off to the left.

Many Happy Returns: Immersive & Interactive Show

Every Wednesday night until September 25, 2024

IntrigueX, Coffee Oysters Champagne and BEARS! In The City! present Many Happy Returns, a new 90-minute immersive and interactive theatre experience running at Coffee Oysters Champagne on King St. W. in Toronto.

It’s New Year’s Eve 1924 – capers & thrills are afoot!

Work together, get to know the people from the past – find out their desires, help them achieve their goals, and they will help you achieve yours. Teamwork will be key to your success, as there will be many schemes brewing. You’re welcome to return on multiple visits to catch new plots, machinations and excitement.

Welcome Time Travellers – to Many Happy Returns!

This 90-minute theatre experience includes time to engage with the immersive environment, get a drink and some appetizers, and enjoy a 60-minute performance, followed by some post-show mingling and party vibes. And, as this is a New Year’s Eve party in 1924, please dress to impress.

Many Happy Returns invites guests to travel back in time, to search for artifacts, meet intriguing guests and unravel mysteries. Guests use teamwork to learn, plan and manipulate the events of a swinging 1920s party to retrieve 10 artifacts before their time travel abilities wear off. You will have one hour to accomplish your mission. Will you succeed? Or will you find yourself trapped in an endless loop in this race against the clock?

This unique performance event will appeal to anyone who loves the décor, clothing, slang and tomfoolery of the roaring 20s, plus scavenger hunts (in this case, guests will be retrieving items directly from performers by conversing with them).
