Murder Mystery Gallery

Murder mystery dinner theaters are a ton of fun with lots of good food - what an awesome combination! You come as the detective and throughout the evening you are part of the event - whether as a guest to a birthday party, or a business dinner, or whatever the theme happens to be when you come.

When you arrive, you can expect to enjoy punch and some light h'orderves while taking the time to look at the evidence table. The evidence on this table will give you clues to the mystery so it's good to come early in order to give yourself time to take in this information.

During the soup and starter courses, a group of actors (who will also be your servers) will act out 2 or 3 scenes that will let you know more about the characters and they will also drop clues that you will need to pick up on and question them about later. Before the main course is served, a murder will take place!

During the main course, the remaining actors/suspects will rotate to each table for 5 minutes, which will give you time to question them based on the evidence table and the clues that they gave away during the conversations/scenes earlier.

During the dessert course, you get to write down on the provided piece of paper who you think did it and why. While you enjoy tea or coffee, the last scene/summary will take place, which will tie up all the loose ends and reveal the culprit. The first person to get it right will win a certificate and a dinner for two.

Depending on the story, the evening usually lasts around 2 1/2 - 3 hours. The cost is $39.95 per person, but does not include tax or gratuity. The actors (who are also your servers) rely on your tips so they appreciate your generosity.

Below are some pictures from previous murder mystery dinners. Hopefully we'll see you at our next mystery for an evening packed full of fun!
