Alcotraz is the bar behind bars, where the serving inmates are your bartenders, the guards are crooked and you become a part of the story. But what is it like having time inside the alcotraz prison bar?
Transcript
00:00Have you ever dreamt of being served cocktails all from the comfort of your very own prison
00:08cell?
00:09Well Bristol's Behind Bars Alcatraz is offering you just that and I am here now and I've just
00:15found out I've not got my parole so I better go into the main prison.
00:19Come on.
00:23All right here we go cell H this is your one right?
00:27Ask H for heaven or H for hell depending on you know how you behave and everything.
00:31Great.
00:32All right make yourselves at home.
00:35At Alcatraz really we try to ensure that every single touch point is thought through so guests
00:42are encouraged to actually smuggle liquor into the penitentiary so before they arrive
00:47they're actually thrown into our world they're encouraged to complete a criminal record where
00:52they kind of get the opportunity to develop their alias and their character profiles
00:58before they come.
00:59So here in my box I have decided to smuggle my very own medication as I will show you
01:06here in the hopes that one of my prison inmates might be able to make me something with it
01:13so let's see if someone turns up.
01:15Hi I'm T for terror.
01:18Are you making your chicken soups today?
01:21Did you happen to smuggle in any contraband?
01:23I did.
01:24Yeah.
01:25Here you go.
01:26Did you have any allergies?
01:27No allergies.
01:28Perfect.
01:29Sweet?
01:30Sour?
01:31Sweet.
01:32Yeah.
01:33Perfect.
01:35God that was easier to smuggle in than I thought.
01:36And tell me about the Bristol venue then what can people expect from that specific venue?
01:43Bristol has been a city that personally I've been super excited to launch in.
01:48I went to university in Cardiff so not too far too far away and obviously Bristol's a
01:52hugely vibrant exciting and fun city.
01:55The Alcatraz there is our most recent site done in the UK and therefore is our highest
02:03quality in terms of set design.
02:06It's had the most amount of time and effort gone into sort of the script the casting process
02:11so really it's it's a great Alcatraz product and one that we're super proud of.
02:16Come on in.
02:17This is your new home.
02:18Mi casa es su casa except sorry I don't actually speak French so I don't know why I tried that.
02:23Right here you got a bench.
02:24Okay.
02:25You can sleep on this.
02:26You can sit on this.
02:28You can well that's the only things that you can do on that but you know that's still good.
02:33There's a toilet here but don't use that please.
02:36Okay.
02:37We've had a lot of incidents.
02:38Okay.
02:39And I am stressed enough already.
02:41We got chairs here.
02:43Guess what you can do on those?
02:45Sit on them.
02:46That's right and well that's pretty much it.
02:49Yeah.
02:50It's a prison cell.
02:51There's not much to do here except sit down and contemplate your actions.
02:54You did the time.
02:55Now you're doing the crime.
02:57But scratch that.
02:58Reverse it.
