Murder...Is Served

Murder...Is Served Dinner Theatre Dinner Theatre is Dinner and a Play. Our productions are murder mysteries. There is the element of 'solving the mystery'.

Solving the mystery is not only challenging, but rewarding. The successful sleuth gets his/her ticket price returned to him/her as a reward for their effort. Dinner theatre is very different for actors as well. They act in and amongst the audiences. Improvisational skills and the ability to focus are needed for the actor to successfully participate in the dinner theatre venue. Audiences have a vas

tly different experience than when attending a stage play. Having the actors up close and personal is different experience for those who have never been to a dinner theatre. The ability of the audience to interact with the actors, asking questions, probing the mystery and getting to know the characters is part of the enjoyment of dinner theatre. The fun really starts when an audience member is selected to participate in the show. You never know how that situation is going to turn out (which is half the fun). All in all, dinner theatre offers an experience that is unique among theatrical venues. Are you the person who watches CSI, for example, and figures out "who dunnit" long before the show ends? Then dinner theatre may be your next challenge. It's a bit tougher than TV, as we have had several occasions when someone did not solve the crime.

With the recent announcement that Chef Eric Johnson is closing his restaurant, Murder Is Served is on a temporary hiatus.

Trust that we are looking at options for a new performance venue (hopefully, with Chef Eric still providing those great meals that you know and love).

We’ve had to make changes like this in the past and have always continued to bring you the best in Murder (and food).

Thank you for all of your support over the years. We certainly couldn’t do what we do, without you!

Stay Vigilant, My Friends...

It's the 1940's, and we are going live in one hour here at the radio station of WMDR! If this show doesn't go well, the station will go out of business.

It certainly doesn't help that the station owner's son is trying to sabotage the show! The radio mystery becomes too real, when someone actually kicks the bucket.

This murder mystery is sure to please, with a cast of wacky characters complete with suspense, love, and FLATULENCE. You'll always remember "The Sound of Murder!"
