    Absolute amazing experience that everyone should do once in their lifetime! A great night full of fun and laughter as we celebrated my best friend's birthday. She has always wanted to do a "mystery dinner" and I stumbled upon this particular company. Buying tickets was easy and they are prompt when responding to emails to confirm things since we all wanted to sit together, but booked separately. Amazing actors that brought the show to life. Food was good as well at the Wyndham at oceanfront. We were able to take beautiful pictures outside before the show, so that was a big bonus! Can't give away too much of the show, but 10/10 would recommend. This was a night for the books!

    This was a great experience for my family. I was excited when I was called on to be a part of the show. The food could have been better but it was edible and I left full. I would go back again.

    The only reason why I'm not giving it 5 starts was because the bread was extremely hard BUT I had a phenomenal time! The show was great and other than the bread the food was surprisingly good. I will definitely go back for another show

    It was so much fun! The actors are hilarious, endure the side remarks of the audience and really get the crowd going. The food is pretty good, especially the dessert. Highly recommend if you love murder mystery's.

    This was my first time going to a murder mystery dinner - something I have been wanting to try…read moreforever. TOTALLY disappointed! It wasn't what I imagined. This production was at 259 Granby St in Norfolk, VA, and this venue is NOT suitable for this type of event. It was entirely too small for an interactive show. People were sitting all over each other. It was a 4 hour event and I believe this is only because you spent majority of the time trying to ensure everyone made it to the front to look at the crime scene, evidence, etc. The food was cold and HORRIBLE. Not to mention dinner didn't come with a drink other than tap water. You had to purchase canned soda or juice at inflated prices. We actually left when desert was served. $120+ for 2 tickets WASTED! What a mess!

    I've read a lot of really mean reviews about this experience. I have to say, I had a great time…read more First of all, the Granby Theater is a fantastic venue. Of course it was cheesy-- it's dinner theater! However, I thought the performances were fun, the actors did a great job interacting with the crowd. The story was light but clever and the crowd work was funny. The food... was a buffet. It's fine. Don't go for the food. Also-- people complaining about the bar being extra-- that was clear in the description. If you want an edgy, complex murder mystery... this isn't for you. If you want some pleasant PG rated fun, I think it's well worth an evening.

    Movie Tavern Marcus Theater continues to be my favorite theater in Williamsburg, and my experiences…read moreover the past couple of years have consistently been pleasant and never disappointing. The theater is always neat and clean, with a bright entrance and interesting movie posters. The café is welcoming, and the staff is a true highlight of the experience. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a genuine smile and a welcoming attitude. The staff is incredibly friendly, polite, and patient, ensuring every step of your visit, from ordering at the café to having your food delivered to your seat, is seamless and pleasant. Their dedication to great service truly sets this theater apart. The food and drinks are a major highlight. There are many delicious choices, and everything is consistently tasty and served hot. The popcorn, in particular, is far superior and fresher than what you get at other theaters. I love the convenience of ordering food and an adult beverage right from my seat and having it delivered hot and quickly. The selection of on-tap beers is also a nice touch. The reclining seats with leg supports are super comfortable, making for a truly relaxing movie-watching experience. Best part is free refills on your popcorn, which is great since I like to take a bucket home with me :) Whether I'm catching a $6 movie on a Tuesday in one of the smaller theaters or a full-price movie in the main auditorium, it's always a great time. If you're looking for a theater with excellent food, comfortable seating, and friendly service, this is the place to go.

Today was the Final episode, but thankfully the manager helped us so very much. She looked at the receipt and helped us to our seats, even bringing us popcorn and drinks for us. I asked her for her name, but I didn't register it into my memory long enough. I think it was Janet, but I could be completely wrong. This showing was booked full!
