The Plot

A Pegasus Play by L. Carmichael ^©

The cast & crew of the worst horror film ever made, Hallowiener Beach Party, are all thrilled to have been invited to the Grimmy Awards.

Eileen Dover, whose claim to fame is her ability to scream for a long time without taking a breath, is sure she is going to win Best Actress, as is Diane Berry, her nemesis on & off the set. Marian Etz is hoping to get the award for special effects & puppetry. Benton Spreadem, the director, just wants enough fame to bankroll his next project.

They'd all just kill for one of these awards!

How This Mystery Unfolds

An Interactive, Laugh-Out-Loud
Dinner Theatre Experience

Get ready for an evening where comedy takes centre stage, and you become part of the mystery. Upon arrival, guests will find a helpful “Super Sleuth” ballot at their table to jot down clues, theories, and suspicions. Throughout the night, actors perform lively scenes right in the midst of the audience, introducing colourful characters, motives, and plenty of hilarious twists. The action is up close and personal—guests can interact with suspects, ask questions, or simply sit back and enjoy the show.

Just when things reach a boiling point, a dramatic (and delightfully comic) “murder” occurs. The room breaks for a delicious buffet, giving everyone time to dine, discuss, debate, and refine their theories. After dinner, the performance continues with new clues and more comedic moments, leading into a playful “kangaroo court” where audience members step in as judge and bailiff to settle lingering questions. Guests then cast their final vote for whodunnit, and Pegasus wraps up the evening by crowning the night’s top Super Sleuth.
