Event Details

SOLD OUT!

Join us for an entertaining night filled with surprises and twists as you try to solve the mystery of the interactive drama and “murder.” The evening will begin with a cocktail hour where you can mingle with the other suspects, then continues as you feast on a delicious dinner. Suddenly something will go terribly wrong as somebody at the party becomes the victim of a dastardly deed. Who is the culprit? He or she could be sitting right next to you! As you examine clues, question suspects, and follow hunches, you’ll help solve the whodunnit by playing your assigned character in the “crime scene.”

Ticket price includes the interactive show, two complimentary beverage tickets, appetizers, dinner that includes salad, entrée, and dessert. Cash bar with a signature cocktail/mocktail, beer, wine and alcohol-free selections.

THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IS REQUIRED FOR EACH PERSON WHEN PURCHASING YOUR TICKETS:

We will assign a character to each guest based on each person’s desired involvement level. Each guest's assigned part and character information will be emailed to them approximately one week before the event to allow time for costume and character creation (this is why we need each person’s email). You can be as creative as you want with your character’s attire/image.

1). Name of each ticket holder on your ticket purchase (tickets purchased together will be seated together)
2). Each person's own email address 
3). Each person's preferred pronoun - so our writer can ensure each person's gender is the same as their character's
4). Each person’s desired involvement level in the murder mystery drama on a scale of 1-star to 5-star
     
(1-star parts are secondary to the story and 5-star parts are main, central characters)
5). Each ticket holder’s Menu Choice: Caprese Chicken (GF), Apple & Cranberry Stuffed Pork Loin or Stuffed Portobello Mushroom (Vegan & GF). *All meals will be served a Market Salad (GF) to start, sides of Lemon Basmati Rice Pilaf (GF & Vegan) and Sautéed Vegetable Medley (GF & Vegan) with their entrée, and a slice of cake for dessert.


DON'T WORRY, THERE ARE NO SCRIPTS TO MEMORIZE!

We'll send you information about your character and then it's all about having fun and just improvising as your character along the way.
