Den of Thieves transports guests back to the Prohibition Era where you decide who should inherit the empire of the Pacific Northwest's most notorious bootlegger. Schmooze with a cast of lovable villains across three floors of a historic Seattle venue… or simply sit back and enjoy an evening of live music, burlesque, and immersive entertainment.

In life, Roy Olson was an infamous gangster and owner of an illicit speakeasy: THE RENDEZVOUS. In death, his closest friends and family have come together to celebrate his passing and determine who should inherit the criminal empire he left behind.

You’re invited to dress in your best vintage funeral glam and join the party where three competing factions vie for control of Roy's estate. Choose between his enterprising mistress, his top lieutenant, and his playboy son—but be careful. Your actions and the allegiances you make will determine how the night unfolds.

ABOUT

DRESS CODE

Not strictly enforced, but black cocktail attire preferred. 1920s glam encouraged.
