The Roaring Twenties, Egyptian Curses, Donations and Diabetes Research all have one thing in common this Halloween Season: Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre.
Poison Ivy Mysteries partners with local Utah restaurants Buca di Beppo and Famous Daves to present Curse of the Scarab, an Original Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre experience. A small percentage of all profits will be donated to JDRF.
Poison Ivy Mysteries upcoming show, Curse of the Scarab, (www.poisonivymysteries.com/shows/now-playing.html) will be performed at Buca di Beppo at 935 East Fort Union Boulevard in Fort Union and Famous Daves located at 7273 West Plaza Center Drive in West Jordan. Shows will be at 7 p.m. every Fridays and Saturdays in October. The show opens on September 30th.
"This show brings the eccentricity of the 20’s and the fascination of the ancient Egyptian world together. We invite you to experience the hilarity as an ancient curse begins to affect the actors and some of the guests. It is a blend of lore and mystery which is perfect for the season.” explains Annelise Murphy, owner of Poison Ivy Mysteries.
Poison Ivy Mysteries (www.poisonivymysteries.com) has been performing Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre around the Salt Lake Valley for a little over 2 years. The shows are written by owner and producer, Annelise Murphy and the music is composed by Jeff Parkes (http://parkesmusic.wordpress.com). Partnering with the JDRF makes perfect sense as Annelise has Type I diabetes herself and wants to help further research for a cure.
Audience members eat dinner and watch the comedic drama unfold until they witness a murder. It is up to them to question the suspects and discover motive, means and opportunity. Prizes from local restaurants and theatres are awarded to the correct solution. It is fun, family friendly and unique. Tickets and donations can be processed online at www.poisonivymysteries.com.
"Kitty Parkhurst is a tough and witty 1920's broad who doesn't take no for an answer," said Sammee Pearson, speaking of her journalistic character, “She will go to any lengths to get her story."
