The Mystery Cafe is an acting troupe. We do an interactive murder mystery comedy dinner theater show inside the Italian restaurant, The Milano Inn. The Public Shows are on Fridays and Saturdays. We can do a private show for your company/group during the week or you can buy out the Public show. We are also partnered with Easley Winery for private shows at their location. Plus there is Chateau Thomas Winery in nearby Plainfield, Public and Private shows are available at Chateau. In addition we are able to pick up and move our show to any location of your choosing. We have performed this show in most of the downtown Hotels and in some of the surrounding Hotels for companies and groups.
We have also a complete Murder Mystery event where there are no actors performing. Instead everybody participates playing a character from beginning to end. We hold this event for companies and groups at the Haunted Hannah House. We have also done this as well as out Murder Mystery Show inside private homes.
We have had Companies use us for Team Building events. There have been times where companies have held meetings or award presentation ceremonies incorporating us as part of the evening.
The show is broken up into four acts with a break in-between each act. The show is designed for courses of dinner to be served during the three breaks. This gives plenty of time for socializing during the evening. Volunteers are chosen to play the minor characters in the story while the two entertainers play the major characters. Volunteers are given their lines to read as well as instructions on when and how to "HAM" it up.
