Local Dinner Theatre ‘Murder Mystery’
Winding Rivers Arts and Performance Society presents ‘Dinner Theatre’ in Ashcroft. Mark your calendars for Nov. 15, 16, 17, 22, 23 and 24. Enjoy a hilarious murder mystery. A host will greet guests and provide all the information they will need to enjoy their evening and try to figure out “whodunit?
The clues will be plentiful and authentic and the prize worth the hunt. Plus, you will enjoy a delicious meal while murder and mayhem happen sporadically around you. There will be a total of six great performances, with different cast members for each performance, including several performances by a kids only cast!
Rosemary Saint-John is a loud, annoying hypochondriac convinced she is allergic to water. Celebrating her birthday at a restaurant with her four kooky sisters - a hippie, a valley girl, a trucker and a banker, Rosemary makes enemies with everyone around her.
When she disappears and is presumed murdered, the only objective witnesses in the restaurant are the audience members, who must cast their vote. Was it one of Rosemary’s sisters? The self-taught detective? The passionate French chef? The polite and proper mâitre d’? The sarcastic waiter? No one is above suspicion in this delightful dinner theatre murder mystery!’
