Virtual Murder Mystery Dinner Show

About

The year is 1888 and in the house of a prosperous sweet manufacturer something stirs. The stirring is done by the Cook, Mrs Enid Baggins, who is putting the final touches to the secret recipe for the Davenport Dreadnought Drops. Sales of this new product are expected to enhance the fortunes of the Davenport family. But Mrs Baggins is found drowned in her own concoction and foul play is suspected.  Can Inspector Pratt solve the case and get back to investigating a string of murders in Whitechapel? Can Miss Fry help, or is she just a nuisance? Can the audience unwrap the case of sugar and vice?

This Virtual Murder Mystery is filmed in a cinematic style and features a LIVE introduction and conclusion by cast members! Catch this show for 4 nights only!

Directed by Kim Shafer
