The Murder Mystery Dinner Theater - The AMAZING cast! Thank you for a magical evening guys! See you soon! - Performing Arts Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

While visiting AZ for spring break we were researching fun things for our family to do. My husband came across this experience and we had a BLAST! Coming from Los Angeles we can be real snobs with this subject as we have experienced great theater at places like Disneyland, Upright Citizens Brigade Improve theater and even The Hollywood Bourbon Rooms interactive production of Rock of Ages (sadly ended during COVID). It is wonderful to see this group has sustained for so long and many people rave about it. I even had a client in Los Angeles visiting from AZ tell me he had heard great things about this company, albeit not experienced it before. The show we saw was hosted at Maggiano's Italian Restaurant. The food is in alignment with the restaurant; oversized portions served family style with a limited set menu. That being said, they were able to accommodate my vegan husband and other guests at my table that are gluten free. The theater production takes place before and during your dinner in one of the private rooms at the restaurant. Everyone gets a character name tag so be prepared to be pulled up to participate. It's all a part of the fun. The room hosted about 20 diners/attendees making it an intimate experience. Perfect for all ages and laughs were shared all around. I highly recommend to any local or out of towner to spice up your dinner with this lively and colorful experience. read more

We went to Mystery Mansion Dinner Theater to celebrate my dad's birthday and it was such a fun night. The setting is intimate, which makes the whole experience feel really interactive and personal. We were laughing out loud the whole time. To quote my dad, "I've had a lot of birthday dinners I don't remember, and this one I will." That pretty much says it all. We'll be talking about this night for years. Highly recommend if you're looking for something different and memorable. read more

I went with a friend and we had a great time. Our show was murder at the vampire wedding. Madame chinski was the best. So funny and my fav. Everyone was great. The show was at George changs. Our table was fun. Some ladies celebrating a birthday. They were just out having fun and everyone was just enjoying the night. If you're looking for something fun this is a great option. Good food, laughs, and just plain fun. read more

The Mystery Mansion Dinner Theater combines big time talent with fabulous small venue vibes that equals a fantastic night for all! No one was left out or put on the spot during this show where the audience participates in this fun murder mystery! There were plenty of smiles throughout the room as the cast engaged with everyone in the audience. It was so much fun! It was great to have the cast take "bribes" from the audience as we tried to figure out this fun whodunnit! The food was fantastic! The courses - yes, I said courses - of delicious bites were impressive. There was so much good food to be had I can promise no one left without a full belly. The cast members were fully engaged as they helped clean up plates during intermission and generously offered to pack up leftovers for anyone who wanted to take food home! You felt like you were at a fun, family dinner without the embarrassing uncle! I would absolutely recommend and return for future shows! I promise you will have a great time while getting in this dinner and show for a fraction of the normal price for this type of entertainment! Book your reservation. You will not regret it. I cannot wait for the next show! Congratulations to this cast on a job well done!! read more

For my 45th birthday, my parents treated my husband and me to a dinner and show at Maggiano's in Scottsdale, and we had the best time! The show was so much fun--great acting, a cool story, and lots of improv from the cast and even the audience. It kept everyone laughing all night! They also surprised me with a mini cake to celebrate, plus gave out little gifts and treats to the participants, which was a nice touch. And the food! We were served a delicious meal--salad, bread, pasta, chicken parm, and then the cutest mini strawberry cheesecake for dessert. It was all so good. Such a fun and memorable night--I couldn't have asked for a better birthday celebration! read more

A TIME WAS HAD! From start to finish, the murder mystery dinner was engaging, entertaining, and so much fun. The cast did an amazing job of getting the audience involved, which made the experience even better. I celebrated my birthday with a group of friends, and they made sure I felt truly special the entire night. Choosing this company for my birthday celebration was the best decision. I can't wait to come back for another performance. Thank you for being so amazing, accommodating, and for making my birthday unforgettable! read more

We had such a fantastic time! It's a unique show, due to the audience participation, and everyone has fun trying to solve the murder mystery. It was a great evening, as we met other people at our table, and we had a lot of laughs, thanks to the very talented cast. They were in character the minute we walked in the door... And you get a great dinner as well. Our dinner was at Lou Malnati's, and they served two types of pasta, a salad, and a pizza cookie.

A group of us went to The Mystery Mansion Dinner Theater https://www.mysterymansion.com held at Lou Malnati's Pizzeria and had such a great time!! The food, the service, and the show were all terrific! It was just silly fun with lots of laughter! The cast are all so nice, funny, and personable and really interact with the audience. Truly a good time had by all. Older children were in the audience and also seemed to have a good time. Couples, families, and business groups, something for everyone! If you're just looking for a fun night out or looking to celebrate a special occasion, this is worth looking in to. read more

We didn't know what to expect and were surprised by how small the venue was. There were two tables with about eight people at each table in a very small room (in the banquet area) with a curtain set up in the back for the cast to use. It was kind of weird and kind of fun at the same time. Our first choice for this night was to go to a comedy club because we both were in need of some serious laughter. This venue did provide that! The cast was talented and good at interacting with us. There is a mystery that you have to solve and none of our 16 participants guessed right on this night. I've had Maggiano's many times at their Skokie location, this was the first time dining at their Scottsdale location. The food was good, but nothing you couldn't get at any Italian restaurant. We had fried zucchini, lasagna, fettuccine Alfredo, pasta salad, chicken parm. Desert was tiramisu and cheesecake. I'm not complaining, we had a good time but we also spent $300 for the two of us and I'm not sure it was worth that. read more

We went to see Murder at the Vampire's Wedding -- and what a fun night! The actors were hilarious, super engaging, and pulled the audience right into the mystery. It takes place in a small back room of the restaurant - nothing fancy. I was so close to winning, too! Apparently, only two of us got it right -- I had the murderer and the motive nailed, but missed the location and the accomplice. So close to my detective debut! ‍ The food, though... not our favorite. It was at George Yang's Chinese Cuisine, and while the show was great, the meal was a miss. Some of the dishes were breaded and fried, and all of it was just too greasy for our taste. The drinks didn't help much either -- three virgin piña coladas came to over $30! For two adults and one child, the total for the show was around $260 before tip, plus the extra for drinks -- a pretty hefty price tag for not-so-great food. Still, the show itself was fantastic, and we'd definitely give it another shot if they host at a different restaurant. read more

This was such an fun event! We had a private show for our annual corporate party at George Yangs Chinese cuisine. The event was unique, actors were talented and so funny, and the audience engagement was absolutely phenomenal. Everyone got an persona, some folks got to participate, and they got us up and dancing too. The food was great and the group was accommodating and good to work with to set up this event. Overall, I'd highly recommend this group, for a personal or corporate event! read more

This was our first murder mystery dinner, and it won't be our last. Although it was a bit "cheesy", it was still a lot of fun. The actors had a great sense of humor, and it was fun to experience it with new friends. read more

We took our three teenage daughters and they loved it. The waiters were great at accommodating all of our dietary needs at Maggiano's. The food was delicious. I called ahead and the cast was willing to make it extra special for one of our kids by including them in the show. Everyone was so kind. We laughed a lot and really enjoyed the evening that will always be remembered. read more

As we were seated, we received our names and background for the night. This totally engaged us in their story. The actors were extremely engaging and friendly. The story itself was a little cheesey but so much fun. I think that the actors brought in just enough of the customers into their play. As for the food, the salad was amazing . I think the rest of the food could have been better, but it didn't matter. My friends and I had a wonderful evening. The room itself was plenty big for the show. I give them 4 stars read more
