Very campy and staged. The cast was easy to figure out. Over all enjoyed most of it. Food was ok, nothing special.

Although the playhouse is looking for a new larger location, my first time experience here was most enjoyable. We saw an archapelo group called IMPROMPTU who were excellent. 2 people wheeled in a small cart with popcorn and soda which I thought quite homey and mom and pop like. One gentleman held a 50 50 raffle, 1 $ a ticket for funds for the theater Parking was convenient as well as restaurants in the area. This show was $12 a ticket, a short intermission, about 11/2 hours for the entire show. Seating and lighting were adequate,. The performance made up for the plain ambience. The staff were very pleasant. I look forward to attend another show.

Very nice community playhouse, just as the title suggests, offering variety of plays along with an…read moreannual dinner theater, sometimes more. Small and intimate with seating on risers, so everyone can see the actors on stage. You are right there in the action. Actor's voices die out of their mouths due to the setting. Many of the actors spoke too softly to be heard or understood. They really need to SPEAK UP and PROJECT. Please!?!? Cute concession stand selling sodas, water, popcorn and homemade cookies. Price? One dollar each. Such a deal. Parking appears to be adequate. We arrived after dark and easily found a place. Looks like it is or was part of a school complex. Located in a hard-to-find area, so do a reconnaissance during daylight or use your GPS to find it the first time. A nice experience. Membership packages on ticket prices, senior discounts and youth tickets. Five plays are on the 2013 schedule. Been around since 1980, 30 seasons. Fun.

Performance was fun, if VERY cheesy and predictable. Characters were over the top goofy, but…read morecommitted to the role. My date and I had a good time, and I might go again for the Groupon price that I got, but not for full price. The food at Beauregard's was acceptable, but just barely. I realize that the Murder Mystery Company has no control over the quality of the food, just sharing for those that are wondering. Full disclosure: after attending, The Murder Mystery Company emailed me asking me to write a Yelp review, and they'd give me tickets for $20/person for a future performance. I don't normally Yelp, and probably wouldn't have written this review without the incentive. That said, this is an honest review, and I wouldn't change it even for free tickets.

I recently saw the Charlotte, NC group perform a show in Wake Forest (if you can call it a…read moreperformance) and it was a very long and drawn out four hours. I have been to other professional murder mysteries and I was excited to hear there would be a show in Wake Forest. But I didn't realize the poor quality and execution of this company. I would not call this group of for professional as they just guided the improv from the ticket holders. The 25 or so suspects were just the audience and that was a lot of people to keep track of and try to remember who was who. Not everyone is good at improv so having the show based on audience participation is just a recipe for disaster. There were four cast members but one of them "Howie" didn't do anything in the show besides take photos of the other three. This performance was more like one of those Murder Mystery boxes you can buy to have a party at your house with friends. It was missing the storyline development by the cast. The cast needed to take the lead and be the show. Most of the night had the audience mingling with the other audience members to share clues. There were two sessions of the mingling which just dragged on this show. Lots of the audience left early and I wanted to as well but I hoped it would get better but it never did. At the end they give out some awards to the audience members who participated. Then they pick a winning table. I'm not sure how that was determined as my table had the same suspect and reasoning and it was not acknowledged as figuring it out. I am sure other tables figured it out as well. I would not recommend this company at all and would look for a better option if you enjoy murder mysteries.

I grew up in High Point and didn't even know this place existed. Centennial Station is located…read moredowntown, just around the corner from Showplace. It used to be an old freight train depot in the early 1900s, but was later converted into a dinner theater and now, it's a special events center. Very old and rustic looking, a lot of the original wooden flooring and structure still remain in place today. I visited on Friday night for a wedding rehearsal dinner afterparty. The inside was nicely decorated for the holidays with Christmas trees, beautiful lights, and colorful ornaments. The main hall has a stage, dance floor, plenty of table seating, and a small open bar in the back. Cool space and perfect for the event. There was a projected slide show on stage of the married couple to be and also a little dancing. The sound system could have been better, but it wasn't a big deal. Bartenders did a good job. Ample parking outside.
