Misteri in Villa

A live-action Clue within the walls of Villa Simeom

Misteri in Villa is an immersive theatrical experience that turns guests into real-life detectives for an evening. The event takes place in Andezeno, a charming village in the hills near Turin, Piedmont, inside the evocative Villa Simeom at Corso Vittorio Emanuele II 12. The historic atmosphere of the manor provides the perfect natural backdrop for a mystery to be solved, where every room hides clues, monologues, and unexpected twists.

How the game works

The format mirrors the classic board game Clue, but brings it into the real world: participants move physically through the villa's rooms, equipped with a map, a notepad, and game cards. Teams of up to five compete by interrogating suspects, verifying alibis, and collecting as much evidence as possible. The goal is to identify the culprit within the time limit, navigating a two-and-a-half-hour journey filled with riddles, challenges, and moments of genuine suspense.

Professional actors and original stories

What makes this experience unique is the presence of a professional cast who embody the characters and engage in face-to-face dialogue with the audience, in scenes charged with pathos and irony. The plots revolve around original stories such as Il Metodo, set within the walls of a theatrical academy and inspired by true events, and Cinque. The boundary between spectator and protagonist dissolves: those who participate do not just watch, they act, investigate, and decide.

A recurring event in the Turin hills

Unlike a traditional local festival, Misteri in Villa is a recurring event held on multiple dates throughout the year, often selling out completely. Alongside the main format, the organizers also offer Misteri a cena (Mystery Dinner) and Misteri al museo (Museum Mystery) editions, as well as sessions dedicated to corporate team building. It is a fantastic opportunity to discover Andezeno and the Province of Turin in a new light, blending theater, teamwork, and mystery.
