Summer 2021 Murder Mystery Dinner Theater
'Man Overboard' a Naval Park Murder Mystery
The Cold War heats up in this military themed murder mystery staged aboard ships at the Buffalo Naval Park. Not everything on the USS Little Rock is ship shape after a crew member is killed and top secret documents are missing. You'll need to channel your best NCIS sleuthing skills to solve this engaging and entertaining mystery.
Portions of proceeds fund the Naval Park, so you are putting 'fun' in fundraising!
