The Dinner Detective is America's largest interactive true crime mystery comedy dinner show! Solve a hilarious and engaging mystery while you feast on a fantastic dinner. Just beware! The killer is hiding somewhere in the room, and you may find yourself as a Prime Suspect!Our show is very different from traditional true crime mystery dinner shows. We will hide non-costumed actors in the audience that are pretending to be part of the crowd. This results in a much more social and interactive evening than with other shows. Our shows are set during the present day and take place in real time. Over the course of the night, our costumed Detectives will uncover clues, interrogate audience members that may or may not be part of the show, and help everyone get closer to solving the mystery.

The show kept your interest thru the entire performance. Characters were believable and entertaining. Location was convenient and comfortable. You didn't know the villain until the very end.

Beverly, thank you! We're glad the characters kept you guessing right up to the end.

Second time I have been to this show. Both times have been amazing. I had a great time , the way they work the room and get total strangers to become friends, laughing, eating and having a few adult beverages together. Wonderful date night ..
