Murder at the Park: A Wedding To Die For

Event Description

Are You Ready to Crack the Case?

Step into a thrilling evening of mystery, music, dinner and a murder most foul at the Wainwright Hotel! Set in 1922, during the prohibition era, this devilishly exciting three-act murder mystery will keep you on the edge of your seat.

The plot centers around the glamorous wedding of Lucious Briarheart and French heiress Andréa Beauchamp—seemingly a picture-perfect union. But what could go wrong at such a lavish event? How about a murder, cleverly disguised beneath the veil of celebration? The booze flows freely (disguised as tea, of course) as you try to solve the crime before the night is over.

Bring your sharpest detective skills and your best sleuthing friends for a night of mystery, suspense and deadly fun!

Don’t miss out on this exclusive event—it’s an evening you won’t forget!

  • Murder at the Park: A Taste to Die For Synopsis

    Set in the roaring 1920s at the Wainwright Hotel, A Taste of Death is a comedic murder mystery wrapped in a soda pop taste-testing competition.

    Hosted by the retired Mr. Kennedy—who’s deeply in debt to hotel owner Mr. Forester—the event brings three rival soda companies to town: Red Cola, Blue Cola, and the eccentric French chemist Dr. Poivre’s homemade concoctions.

    As tensions brew among the quirky cast, including a germaphobic businessman, a sidelined but charismatic Blue Cola representative, a cheerfully anti-soda dentist, and a flamboyant Scottish detective named Cameron, old rivalries and hidden secrets come to the surface.
