Justiceforcedave Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Hullo Efesters! I'm going to be operating an escape room game in The Circus and Theatre field this year (Bella's field). The twist? It's inside a Portaloo.... it's called Portaclue: The T.U.R.D.I.S. (Toilet utilities requiring dexterity, intelligence & skill) and it would be wonderful to see some of you there! Thursday-Sunday 11am-7pm. Note: It DOES NOT function as an actual toilet. It DOES have a disco ball 😆 3 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beefykoala Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Do you have a contingency plan for if someone does use it as a toilet? Looks awesome BTW - is it a ticketed thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DareToDibble Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Is this a turn up and queue situation or are you doing any kind of bookings? Or turn up and get given a time to come back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll take bookings in the morning for each day and recommend turning up when we open (11) but we’ll take walk ins for no shows and select slots. If you come and see us we’ll find a way you can play! 🙂 Games are under our watchful eye and the No 1 rule is “No number 2s” so no one will be using it as a legit toilet!

Dave_c Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 This is a great idea and would be good fun, will deffo pay a visit. Imagining the carnage in there if we get another 2016! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DareToDibble Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 I've just seen it's only about 15 minutes too, which is great. Not sure I would want to spend an hour in there if it's 2019 weather 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squirrelarmy Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 Looking at those pics I’m guessing you’re going to have to go fishing in the toilet bowl for clues. Could get interesting late in the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CauliflowerEar Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 I dont really see the point of this, Portaloos are generally to be avoided, unless you need a little bit of time to calm down from your acid trip. Celebrating them is odd, and kind of screams "look how quirky i can be!". If it rains, it will get messed up with mud as well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus maybe have a shite and a bump of gak just to steady yourself a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an escape room, you find clues inside to help get you out, they're pretty popular at the moment. The portaloo theme doesn't scream 'quirky' to me, it seems like the most obvious choice for a small escape room at a festival. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If somewhere you go to shit your rancid guts out after a heavy night is the 'most obvious choice' for an 'escape room', then you certainly are a super quirky guy 😆. Are you also one of these bonkers types that wears glittery wellies even if it isn't raining? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
