PINE MOUNTAIN, GA (5/6/14) – The ever popular Mystery Dinner Theater, a fun, engaging and delicious way to spend an evening, is returning to Callaway Gardens in May.
For those who have been missing the fun, a Mystery Dinner Theater includes a little detective work while you dine on delicious cuisine from the Callaway Gardens culinary team led by the new Executive Chef Michael Gonzalez, joining the Callaway Gardens team from Biltmore Estates. An evening of mystery includes opportunities for guests to interact with the cast. Guests selected just before the show will receive reading parts and will be cued to deliver their award-winning performances. Expect a few surprises and activities to add to the fun; plus, solving the mystery comes with token prizes for the winning team.
“Murder…On The Menu”
On Saturday, May 17, 2014, detective skills – and an appetite – will be necessary at Callaway Gardens for the Spring Mystery Dinner: “Murder…On The Menu.” Guests will enjoy a delicious three-course meal and an exciting evening of interaction with a professional cast to figure out the culprit in a lively “who-dun-it” mystery. During this evening of intrigue, we find that Stewart, a waiter at Callaway Gardens, is not the most graceful waiter or the best waiter on staff. But, as far as replacing a dropped fork or refilling your water, Stewart is your man. And, although he may be a rather non-descript waiter, and person, he is about to take center stage in a murder investigation – HIS murder investigation. It’s up to a crack investigation team of Inspector McMichaels and Inspector McAdams to interrogate the various suspects assembled. Interesting suspects like Stewart’s ex-girlfriend, Stewart’s former employer, the Conspiracy Guy, and others. One of these assembled suspects has had a hand in Stewart’s murder. And it’s up to McMichaels and McAdams, and those participating, to make sure that, A) the guilty party is brought to justice, and B) everyone is aware of a new menu item – the Cajun Catfish a la Orange. Mmmm-mmmm.
