Murder On The Menu | Harrisburg | February 21-23, 2025

Artemus Ward, head of his family’s  lucrative publishing business, falls face first into his mashed potatoes, revealing a knife in his back. Luckily Dr. Bullfinger, an over-eager, newly elected county coroner, was dining at the restaurant and is eager to lead an investigation... and give herself a career boost in the process!

It’s hard to say who did it considering everyone has a motive. Reginald, the heir to the business? Major, who wrote the company’s bestseller but hasn’t received his royalties? Alexis, four-time widow of husbands who died at the dinner table? The destitute nephew, Bernie, from the mailroom? Or Eileen Morrow, a backstabbing attorney?

Between scenes, the audience will interact with cast members to discover additional clues and help uncover the culprit!
