About This Show
The wedding of East End gangster, Jim Slice, in July 1955 is remembered for two things: the Slice family’s notorious reputation and the fatal stabbing of the priest before the ceremony could start. Despite numerous allegations and suspicions, the murder of Reverend Gris was never solved. ImmerCity are calling on audiences to step back in time, to that fateful day, and investigate the truth behind this close-knit community torn apart by World War Two, who are rebuilding life from the rubble. Uncover a seething pit of family in-fighting, war-time secrets, blackmail, smuggling, and, of course, murder… Coming to the church and surrounding graveyard of St Matthews in the heart of Bethnal Green. 1950’s wedding attire encouraged.
This event takes place at St Matthew’s St Matthews’s Row, Bethnal Green, London E2 6DT
