Elements That Set Our Murder Mystery Shows Apart Are: • All of our murder mystery shows are fully scripted.

PTC believes that the best murder mysteries have a beginning, middle, and end. • All dinner theater shows are fully rehearsed. Although our actors are very experienced, they still need practice. • All of our actors are trained professionals. So please, don’t try this at home. • All of our dinner theater shows are interactive comedies, and participation includes questioning suspects, dance contests, or possibly even playing a role.
