Tickets are on sale for the Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre “The Write Way to Commit Murder” on Saturday, July 22, at the Wake Forest Renaissance Centre for the Arts on Brooks Street.
If you enjoy the theater intertwined with a good murder mystery, then you’ll love “The Write Way to Commit Murder” performed by the Triangle-based theater troupe It’s A Mystery. It’s A Mystery’s interactive comedy mysteries offer fresh, creative and fun entertainment. The group’s original scripts, played out by talented actors, will challenge your brain and tickle your funny bone!
“The Write Way to Commit Murder” will be performed by It’s A Mystery’s professional troupe of seven accomplished actors who will bring to life exciting characters with colorful backgrounds and questionable motives. The sophisticated plot that ensues will provide the audience with clues to help you pin down the perpetrator or perpetrators of a dastardly deed.
“The Write Way to Commit Murder” welcomes you to an evening of delicious food, fine wine and a stimulating discussion of the written word. The evening’s host, “Barnaby Beanblossom,” has gathered several of the leading authors from various genres to participate in a literary feast.
This popular form of interactive theater gives attendees the chance to be a part of the show by mingling with the characters during the reception, questioning the “suspects” after the crime has been perpetrated, and formulating their own notion of “whodunit” and why. So be sure to wear your southern curls and pearls and, oh yes – stylish hats!
Designed for patrons ages 18 and older, this crime-solving theatrical production will include a buffet dinner provided by Papa Jack’s Catering. The buffet will feature Caesar salad, lemon pepper chicken, oven roasted rosemary potatoes, grilled roasted fresh vegetables with basil, macaroni and cheese, chocolate cake or peach cobbler, yeast rolls with butter, and sweet tea or fruit-flavored water. A variety of beer and wine will also be available for purchase.
