A Higher-Caliber Murder Mystery Show

The majority of our clients are educated Corporate personnel from all over the world. Our audiences include CEO’s and management staffs from many Fortune 500 companies whom all expect an optimum performance from vendors that they hire. To ensure successful results, we execute our plays with the same enthusiasm and precision of REAL-LIFE murder investigations! Our scripts are a seasoned combination of intelligent plots, clever twists, humor and realistic evidence. In fact, our brand of murder mystery plays include many aspects of actual law enforcement procedures. We must be convincing: TV and movie casting agencies recruit some of our actors to appear in productions that include leading actors from movies and television.

Our Murder Mystery Dinner Theater plays are similar to a real homicide investigation. The DETECTIVE cast in the leading role is dynamic and authoritative and he is the play’s lifeblood (pardon the pun). His personality and stature resembles a career detective, yet he is skilled at the art of dead-pan humor. A thirty-year career of performing experience comes into play as he directs and guides the mood of your audience. Your guests will feel comfortable to let fly with their own humorous comments or wisecracks since the detective sets the mood, accordingly.

Full-time, Professional Actors versus Part-Time “Wanna-bees”

Our actors are TRUE professionals – unlike the part-time amateurs that other mystery companies loosely refer to as ”Professional Actors”. Sure, they might be paid fifty bucks and a free dinner for their services, but this does not mean their acting ability is on a higher, professional par. Restaurants and hotels choose to avoid hiring good quality actors or the more established murder mystery companies because they want to make most of their profit on food. It does not occur to them to pay a higher price for quality entertainment. They think the public won’t know the difference. This may be partially correct since most ticket buyers don’t think twice about the level of acting they will see; and they wrongly assume that no hotel or restaurant would ever hire an amateur show.

If you want to really see a stark comparison between the different qualities of a murder mystery dinner show, log unto YELP and see what kind of reviews other mystery companies are getting. Or, go click on any number of YouTube videos of murder mystery companies. You will be amazed at the amount of cheesy and amateur talent that is passing for a murder mystery dinner show.

Here’s a short sample of what our clients say:

“You guys did a fantastic job with our group!”
Marilyn Merydith, Intel

“The actors are top notch since they regularly appear in movies and TV shows. They mingled well with our 40 guests, and they were definitely the hit of the party! The play and script was surprisingly believeable and realistic – not way over the top or too cheesy. It was funny at the right points, but then serious at other points which made the drama so intriguing.”
Dennis Yardley, Yelp Review (San Francisco)

“Our team had a lot of fun…the meeting was incredibly effective…
because of the murder mystery play.” Cheryll O’Mara, Intel Corp.

“Detective Schlitt — looked and acted the part with a commanding stage presence. He has a booming voice and is able to keep everyone riveted in full attention.
Note to hecklers or people who are talking at their tables— you will be sorry!
Detective Schlitt is merciless and funny. ”
Matt Cohen, Auburn, CA (Guest at public show in Loomis, CA)

“We received a lot of positive feedback…thank you for doing such a great job!”
Evie Roberts, private party

“You made my birthday memorable…everyone had a great time!”
