Mystery Dinner Playhouse

The laughs abound in this "must do" fun filled New Year's Eve for the whole family! Dinner is served to you at your table by a zany cast of characters who all the while are providing clues to help you solve the evening's crime. You'll be given bribe money to entice the "suspects" to give you better clues.

Now in our 12th smash year, we are Richmond's very popular mystery dinner theatre. Audience members solve a hilarious comedy mystery while enjoying a delicious four course dinner.

If you're looking for a new and different place to celebrate with a night of major FUN, then come join our cast of killers at Mystery Dinner Playhouse. Perfect for couples, families, seniors, students & school groups, office parties, sales meetings, tour groups.....We're a whodunit of a good time!

About the Show: ~ When you arrive, you will be met at the door by one or two of the evening's "suspects" who will help you find your seats, show you to our cash bar, and get you ready for the mystery about to unfold.
~ When the first scene starts, keep a watchful eye open for clues, and jot down anything that look suspicious.
~ As the evening progresses, and the plot thickens, you will open a "clue dossier" which contains, among other things, special "bribe money" to use to entice the "suspects" to give you better clues.
~ Between scenes, our cast (always in character) serves you a delicious four course dinner. This gives you a chance to question each of the suspects about key elements of the murder.
~ At the end of the evening we collect your "solution forms" and give a prize to the person who best solves the mystery. We also give a prize to the more stupi...uh, well...creative answer!
