This once-in-a-lifetime evening will honor Disneyland as one of the world’s great storytelling environments, with special emphasis on its technological wonders. Combining history, entertainment, lots of surprises and featuring never-before-seen props and artifacts, it’s an event not to be missed by any Disney or animatronics fan!

Accomplice: London – presented by Tom Salamon & Neil Patrick Harris

By Rach | Published Wed Aug-4-10 -

Vacation time has taken its’ toll on our regularity of updates, so there’s a backlog of interview links and videos we need to post. That’s coming some time this week, but for now, something much more important!

After the success of Accomplice: Hollywood, which launched in Los Angeles last year, Neil and Tom Salamon have teamed up once again, this time to produce Accomplice: London with the Menier Chocolate Factory in London. Shows begin on Saturday, September 4th, and are every half hour from 12 noon until 4pm. Each show lasts approximately three hours.

Sending its audience on a trek through the South Bank of London, participants are sent on a mission, aided by clues and mysterious cast members strewn throughout various locations such as streetcorners, pubs, out of the way shops, and iconic locations. Audiences in groups of 10 traverse the city streets, piecing together clues of a meticulously crafted plot.

Tickets go on sale tomorrow, August 5th, at 3pm. All tickets cost £29.50 with a £2 transaction fee – for more details, visit the Menier website here. As a Brit who hasn’t yet made it out for any of the original Accomplice shows, I’ll be buying!
