Murder Mystery Dinner - “Betrothal or Betrayal?”

Enjoy a three-course dinner and watch as the mystery and drama unfold around you during this original murder mystery play: “Betrothal or Betrayal?” Another social season is drawing to a close, and Lady Richfield still has yet to find an appropriate suitor for any of her three available (and aging) daughters. As time runs out, desperation sets in. A scandalous murder at the final ball of the season sends all of society into a frenzy. Will you be able to separate the rumors from the truth? Limited event.
