Murder Mystery Dinner Theater
Tailgate Terror-A Football Themed Murder Mystery
You're invited to Buffalo's best tailgate party. But when the arrogant all star quarterback Brady Tom is permanently sidelined, you'll need to huddle-up and solve his murder.
Could the flighty, flirty cheerleader be the murderer? What about the famous super fan--can jumping on flaming folding tables make you a murderer? Or is it the loud mouth announcer?
You'll interact with the performers, look for clues, ask questions and figure out who is guilty. Come dressed in your best football gear and join the party!
The Performance
During this 2 hour improvisational event you'll interact with the suspects and listen to testimony. You'll also have opportunities to ask questions directly of the characters. If you've been to our murder mysteries at the Hotel Lafayette, Canalside, The Grain silos at RiverWorks or aboard the Winery Train, you'll know what to expect. Check out the images below to see pictures from previous performances (many of our guests arrive wearing clothes that match the theme of our play--and you should too!).
