Private Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre

Presented by  Pegasus Performances, comic Murder Mysteries are fun, unique, intimate dinner theatre. Guests play the role of detective, trying to deduce "who dunnit".

ACT I
Mystery guests find a helpful 'ballot' at their dining room table, which assists them in playing detective, then actors enter and perform scenes amongst them. The action is up-close and intimate and guests can just sit back, laugh and enjoy - or inter-act. These episodes introduce the characters and motives - while setting the scene for FUN!

At some point during the soup and salad service a dramatic 'murder' occurs.
A dinner break is then taken for your guests to enjoy their delicious entree.

ACT II
After a sumptuous entrée, further fun scenarios are performed where accusations abound. Listen closely, get involved with other guests, exchange clues and ideas,
And most importantly - HAVE FUN!

ACT III
The audience is invited upstairs to the Captain's room where a 'mock trial' is held with members of the audience able to question the suspects. As ACT III concludes,
guests return to the dining room where dessert is served. Shrewd detectives ponder their conclusions and complete the ballot provided.

CONCLUSION:
The cast returns and in a comic presentation explains the actual solution, awarding a certificate and prize to the evening's 'Super Sleuth'.
