Our immensely popular Dinner Detective shows are set in the present day. Unlike other mystery dinner shows, here you will find no cheesy costumes, no recited campy dialogue and no hokey song and dance. Our performers are dressed just like everyone else, leaving all of the guests to suspect who is a part of the show and who is not. In many instances, guests are seated with the performers and don't even realize it until they die...the performers, that is! Our Detectives proceed to interrogate everyone and find clues as the mystery unfolds. At the end of the night, prizes are awarded to the Top Sleuth who solves the crime. The Dinner Detective performs at the Ruby River Hotel. We offer an amazing true-crime mystery show paired with a fantastic four-course plated dinner. Water and coffee are included, and there is a cash bar available as well. OUR MENU: Appetizer: Charcuterie or Bruschetta (Chef’s Choice)House Salad, with Rolls & ButterChoice Of Entree: Chicken Piccata w/ penne pasta, parsley, with lemon white wine sauceGrilled Salmon Filet w/ romesco sauce, risotto, and grilled asparagusPasta Primavera (Vegetarian)Dessert: CannoliPlease note, short lighting blackouts are used as part of the performance. Our show does not have a theme or time period, and our performers are not in costume. You can choose whether or not to participate in the show! Our guests are encouraged but not required to perform or participate. However, since our actors are hidden in the audience, other audience members may interact with and interrogate you on their own. The show takes place all around you! Our actors are seated all around the room, possibly at your table. We also ensure each table gets to see every clue and witness every important scene, so all guests have an equal chance to solve the mystery! The Dinner Detective is a show geared toward adults. We have a strict age limit of 15 years old, due to mild adult content, loud noises, and swearing.

Once complete, these cards will be delivered to local hospitals for patients receiving care for their mental health, as well as youth, elder adults, active duty service members/veterans, and domestic violence survivors who are facing mental health challenges. Some Pro Tips! Please do not seal your envelopes so organizations can ensure the message is appropriate for each recipient. If you are mailing in or dropping off your cards, please note who you had in mind when creating this card so we can ensure it is delivered to who you intended. We hope to see you there!
