America’s largest interactive comedy murder mystery dinner theatre show is now playing! Solve a hilarious mystery while you feast on a fantastic dinner. Just beware! The culprit is hiding in plain sight somewhere in the room, and you may find yourself as a Prime Suspect before you know it!
Join us for an event that is very different from a traditional murder mystery dinner show. Our actors are not dressed in costume and are hidden in the audience! This results in a fun, social and interactive evening suitable for all adults.
Each ticket includes our signature award-winning murder mystery dinner theatre show, along with a full plated dinner, waitstaff gratuity, and plenty of surprises during the show.
Hosting a party or private event? We specialize in custom private events for companies, groups, and organizations of almost every size! We can host your event onsite at our public show location, or we can bring a show to your home, business, or venue anywhere in Charleston, SC.
This was a great and funny show. We had a lovely time enjoying dinner and deciphering clues. The actors were interactive and servers were very friendly.

A fantastic and funny time!Beginning:Arrived 10 minutes early, had fun looking around the gorgeous Embassy Suites. Doors opened exactly on time and you can... already feel the tension as soon as you come in. Seat assignments are promptly given and it’s a large, pretty room!The show:It was a very fun romp. Everyone, audience and actors, played well off of each other. The hosts were so kind to everyone and made you feel like friends. The mystery part was difficult for me as I didn’t know what was a joke and what was part of clues. The story was not laid out in a way I quite understood, it was more about jokes and involving every member of the audience, kind of like an improv show rather than a mystery. I have more to say but don’t want to give anything away, but it wasn’t what I expected. Still had fun though! I just took it more seriously than it was given to the audience.The food:The hors d'oeuvres were light, veggie plate and chips with hummus and ranch. The salad that came next was clean and tasty. For the entree, I chose the vegetarian option, a ravioli with a bright sauce, sliced zucchini, and spinach. It was delicious! I heard no complaints from my table. Finally, I had a cheesecake that was very nice.Overall:I expected something much different from the online look and the perhaps ironic promise of “no song and dance”. However, when I accepted it was an interactive show and less of a laid out story, I began to have more fun. Good food, good actors, and gracious hosts. A dinner party I would attend again.read more

We have never been to Charleston before and we were really looking forward to this mystery dinner! We had a great time and were super excited to have actually... solved the crime! We had so much fun, were seated at a super involved table with some of the actors and the food was great. Very entertaining and great ad-lib and energy from all the actors. Even my in-laws enjoyed the evening and it wasn't really their thing. Thanks for a great evening!read more

Wife and I went to the show in Charleston, SC on 7/24/21. We were seated at a table with 8 other outstanding guests. We had an awesome experience! Great... interactive show, full of suspense and laughter. Food was good. Libations were reasonably priced and abundant. The serving staff was prompt and courteous. The actors were very entertaining and the host/ MC was very good! Would go again and highly recommend for couples or group. Not recommended for children under 15ish.read more
