ABOUT US CONTACT US

HOLIDAY PARTIES

We can entertain practically every type of holiday party. Our Christmas Party options have entertained some of the largest family groups, celebrities looking to stay out of the limelight with their family, or companies inviting employees into their boss's home to build camaraderie. We also provide Valentines Day Parties, New Years Eve, Halloween, and just about any other type of holiday you can think of.

SWEET 16 PARTIES

This party celebrating the coming of age requires an understanding from our facilitator to meet the needs of having a party celebrating her becoming an adult while making sure that it is a safe environment for participants. By staying in the suburbs, we help you enjoy the event with classmates and those the celebrant grew up with.

BAR AND BAT MITZVAHS

We know the importance of providing the traditional elements of celebrating becoming a man or woman in eyes of the Jewish community while also wanting to provide a unique experience that can out perform celebrations had by others. By coming to the suburbs, we let you share the experience with your congregation.

BIRTHDAY PARTIES

Finding unique ways to celebrate the milestones of your life require being able to adjust to a variety of age groups and to deal with a variety of traditional and non-traditional options, including surprise parties and roasts. Why force the celebrant to go into the city when you can have the party come to you?

WEDDING PARTIES

Weddings are a lot more than just the ceremony. We provide entertainment from the Engagement, through the Bachelor or Bachelorette Party, the Reheasal Dinner, the Reception, or even little games in-between. We help make your nuptials even more special! Holding your celebrations in the suburbs helps to make things much less complicated and more fun!

ANNIVERSARIES

Looking back on lives spent together requires putting the focus where it belongs, on the happy couple. We work with you to bring the best options possible to celebrate and enjoy family. The more years that have progressed, the more the happy couple would likely enjoy to not have to go into the city and make the event more of an obligation than a celebration.

Whether you are looking for a Murder Mystery Dinner Show for a fun Winnetka in-home private party, or a Game Show, or Improv Comedy Show, we are the company to handle your needs. It's never about us. It's about what THEY need!

WE CATER TO YOUR NEEDS ... SOMETIMES LITERALLY! While we always adjust to the needs of our clients, we sometimes go above and beyond for events that might be where you live. We have done Ambush Mysteries where we were chefs, the catering staff, neighbors, long-lost relatives or coworkers, local politicians, etc. We adjust to the age group of the people in attendance. We can bring hosts of a particular desired gender, which is important for events with young teens. Just let us know what you would like or make your guests more comfortable and we will work to make it happen.

Murder Mysteries

We provide mysteries at in-home parties. A question you should ask: What happens if no one gets it right? We're improvisers. We adjust to you. Some others fight you all night long. If the other company can't fix the mistakes, no one gets it right! We adjust to what happened so that there's always a correct answer. We're not trying to outsmart you, we are trying to entertain!

Game Shows

We engage the competitive spirit of partygoers and get them playing with one another and enjoying the fun. These are a lot of the TV styled shows as well as customized formats that we can create just for your family and friends. Ask us about Truth Be Told!

Improv Comedy Shows

Improvisational comedy is a great way to have an ensemble entertain your group in a relaxed atmosphere. We can use this to get people laughing and having a shared experience and even incorporate your people in the show. Ask about our Improv is Magic Show!

Magic and Mentalism

We can bring a variety of magicians and mentalists to your event. They can perform by roaming through your group with one-on-one performances, or they can perform on stage in front of the group as a whole. We will need to know a lot more to get you a quote.

Fun Characters

We can bring fun characters to interact with your groups. These can be for comedic value as well as to create a surprise in a variety of ways. With Santas, police, hotel managers, dates, and many other options, we can pep up any gathering and help to prank your friends.

We consult with you to discuss your event and bring the best options based on our conversations that are custom-tailored to your group. This can include a variety of activities from murder mysteries and game shows, to fun characters, and comedy.

WE PLAY CHESS WHILE OUR COMPETITORS PLAY CHECKERS!
We come from the business world. We plan moves ahead to use techniques that are fun in nature to not only entertain, but to help your celebration. We adjust to your needs to help you, and our guests, to have the best and most customized experience possible. We want you happy so that you will recommend us to everyone you know. That's thinking ahead!

Considered one of the most wealthy communities in the Greater Chicago area, it is renowned for success from the students who graduate locally and for the amazing homes, some with exclusive lakefront access. Many of the homes were built with entertaining in mind. They are set up well for bringing groups in and enjoying a night of fun. Whether you are on Mansion Row, or just nearby, we can serve your family and friends with a night of enjoyment exclusively for you!

There's no reason to stay at home alone! If you have been left behind by your family, you can invite a whole new set of friends into your home and we can provide the entertainment. Just don't invite the Wet Bandits! And if you live in the McAllister mansion, we would probably provide a bit of a discount, as long as the place isn't booby trapped anymore! If somehow you don't get the references, the movie Home Alone was filmed in Winnetka and the home is a popular tourist attraction. Please don't annoy the owners! We feel for them!

We serve the entire area including East Winnetka, Forest Glen, Hubbard Woods, Indian Hill (including the Indian Hill Club), and the homes on Pine Lane, Sheridan Road, Blackthorn Road, Sumac Lane, and Fox Lane, as well as nearby in Glencoe, Kenilworth, Northfield, and the rest of the Greater Chicago area. Simply let us know where you want to be and we can find a way to make it happen!
