The Jury Experience: The Deadly Boat Ride

The Jury Experience: The Deadly Boat Ride at Gem Theatre - Detroit

You are not watching the jury deliberate. You are the jury. The evidence is there. The witnesses will speak. The audience gets to choose a verdict. The Jury Experience: The Deadly Boat Ride puts the verdict in your hands at Gem Theatre in Detroit on February 26, 2027 at 6:00 PM, and the stories you hear won't all point in the same direction.

This is interactive courtroom theatre that asks you to weigh testimony and examine the evidence. The case involves a politician's son, an ex-lover and old friends, with motives to consider as you decide what you believe. It gives mystery fans something active to do with their curiosity: assess credibility and cast votes as part of the audience jury.

The approximately 60-minute production includes adult themes: domestic violence, emotional manipulation, alcohol and a distressing emergency-services call. It is for ages 12 and up, with guests under 16 accompanied by an adult. Choose it for the challenge of making a judgment, and the conversation you can have with someone who may read the same case differently.

Bring your sharpest-minded friend and see whether you reach the same verdict. Choose the 6 PM case.
