Really well done session. This was my second virtual murder mystery and I thought this company did a noticably better job than the first. In addition, Sam was wonderful. Responsive in chat, able to help people navigate the website real time without losing the immersion, and rolled with a chaotic, impromptu environment really well. Thanks Sam!!

It was a great night out with our friends. Active participation versus passive, like at the movies, was a nice change of pace.

The murder mystery was great! Our host was Rachel and she did a great job having all of us participate and guiding us. Loved it! Thank you!

Surprised by all the bad reviews. I purchased tickets through Groupon last year and brought my husband and grown children. Wish I could share our pic, we all dressed up to play the part. It was a fun night out, we enjoyed it. I remember the food being good, especially the bread pudding. Where can I find the praline bread pudding???? Does the hotel serve it?

The entertainment was great. We enjoyed the acting and they did a good job of getting everyone involved. It would probably get 5 stars... except that the food provided was downright awful. Both of the food options tasted like they came out of a box. My wifes shrimp pasta dinner had a total of 3 tiny shrimp in it, the woman seated to my right had 2 shrimp.For the price there is no excuse for food that bad.

A little boring.I didnt like the getting up to ask questions. It wasnt as interactive as I had experienced before. The cast should have engaged EVERYONE, not just the chosen characters. Getting up to ask questions of others doesnt really work and is lost on many of us. Especially the introverts.My girlfriend got disinterested from the beginning.Also, for the price we paid, drinks should have been included, or at least take debit or credit cards!!!There should have been more seafood options considering it was a Friday during Lent in New Orleans, a predominantly Catholic city.

We had a fantastic time. The characters were very funny and the staff was very good. Cant wait to go to another!

I was expecting a better collaboration, and explanation on how the scenario was to proceed. It seemed that one table was given all the answers due to the two most involved characters (players) sat at the same table with all of the clues that went along with those characters. This allowed them to have full access to every detail. They went over how the event should occur, but it was done so quickly that you couldnt even hear everything. This even did include dinner, which was very well prepared. The only issue is, while you are eating you must still, read your character, eat your meal, stand up answer questions, and go to other tables and ask questions. This made it really tough to try to remember all of your lines for you part. My solution to this problem is to make this to extend the entire format to about 4 hours, decrease the price, and maybe offer dinner before or after the format.

Dont bother! Bad food (they couldnt even manage to microwave it enough to serve it hot), boring atmosphere (hotel meeting room), terrible acting, not organized, too crowded, and a complete waste of time! This was an expensive game of walk around aimlessly trying to find suspects in the huge crowd so you can bribe them with fake money to give you clues even though they are all just as clueless about what is going on)! I actually felt envious of one of the people that were murdered because they no longer had to participate and were drug out of the room!

The worst money spent ever. A kindergartener could have done a better job. It was unorganized and the three cast members had no talent. One of the cast members didnt do anything. As far as the venue, the food was horrible and the room was so hot and miserable. We paid extra for the Gold Circle upgrade and that was a joke as well. There were no special seating and no photo ops at the end.

Fantastic concept, at a modest price. Great place to bring your friends to mix things up.

Completely unorganized. No one knew what was going on because the microphone had so much static and no clear directions were given. The bread they served had mold on them. We left in the middle of it because it was so awful and no one had any idea what was going on. Save your money. Really disappointing evening.

It was pretty corny. Was not good at all . I laughed more at how bad it was then the cast was good. Dont waste your time and money. Gold Circle tickets are a joke. Nothing extra but a picture. Go at your own risk of being bored

Some side actors were decent, but the main director was rude and poor at his job. Poorly run, bad speaker system, and we were under the illusion it would be play based. It relied on guests acting out the characters which made the whole experience convulted. Mediocre food. Overpriced. Not recommended

Show was good. Glad we went on a groupon though. Part of the crowd was loud and obnoxious almost felt bad for the performers.

Acting was horrible. Sound system was terrible. We were told the wrong attire. I would never go to this event again or recommend this to anyone. Horrible!!!!

Review №25

Horrible!! Pretty bad when everyone at a table walks out before show is over. Even worse when one of the actors apologized to everyone for the poor performance. Paid for gold circle which included a mug shot, but the photographer didnt show up. Shame on myster dinner theatre, everyone leaving was disappointed!!
