Safehouse ‘77
Premiere: November 2017
Remount: March 2018, November 2018
Safehouse ‘77, the debut immersive production from Spy Brunch, is a one-of-a-kind experience in which an audience of ten is transported back in time to a Los Angeles house party in 1977. Cocktails and snacks are served, music plays… but what’s really going on beneath the evening’s glossy surface? As participants are pulled into private encounters, they begin to learn more about their fellow guests and the secrets they hold. Intrigue, laughs, seduction… it’s all fair game tonight, so you’d better be on your toes.
Drawing influences from everything from James Bond to Fleetwood Mac, Safehouse ‘77 was a sold-out hit that received critical acclaim, attracted celebrity guests, and even made its way into Food & Wine. The show opened in November 2017 and was remounted twice, in March 2018 and November 2018. Its much-anticipated sequel, Safehouse ‘82, followed in 2019.

Reviews
“Think about the best party you’ve ever been to, then think about what it would be like to attend that party as whatever version of yourself you wanted.”
“With multiple tracks, an intricate web of backstory, and dozens of potential character encounters, Safehouse ’77 is a logistical marvel.”
“[T]he immersive spy thriller we needed.”
“[A] brilliant storyline that encompasses all who participate in a way that appears to be done seamlessly.”
“So exquisitely is the action choreographed... that you will be too busy on your own mission to notice when guests are pulled into other rooms by cast members behind closed doors which you may NOT open.”
“[E]very intricate detail fits into the whole, creating a truly transportive world.”
