AMBUSH MURDER MYSTERIES

THEY improv is one of the few performance groups in the world specializing in ambush murder mystery dinners. For smaller groups of people, especially those in corporate or family situations where tension exists, an ambush murder mystery is perfect for creating a fun evening that will burst the bubble of tension and be memorable for all in attendance. Now this is available for European murder mystery dinners.

AMBUSH MURDER MYSTERIES
SAMPLE SCENARIO

COMEDIAN CARNAGE

The audience is told that they are getting a stand-up comedian for the evening. That comedian is there and introduces his girlfriend to the audience and having a nice time with the partygoers. During cocktails and the beginning of the meal these characters are having a nice time mingling with the crowd. There are other characters as well, such as an assistant who believes himself to be a comedian, who also are outgoing and entertaining people.

During the actual meal, the comedian's wife appears and confronts the couple. Instead of a major argument, the comedian claims that the girlfriend is actually just there to take photos or his make-up artist. Tension builds as audience members struggle with the moral implications of not saying anything. The characters continue to grow the problems between them and walk a fine line to try to cause tension but not to the point that audience members intercede.

The comedian gets up to perform at the beginning of dessert, takes a drink of water and dies. At that point the audience is made aware that it is a murder mystery dinner and not really happening. This is done in a comedic way.

At this point the detective takes over, often played by the comedian himself, and comedically walks through the process of solving the crime.

Ambush murder mysteries are perfect for team building corporate events, meetings and incentives awards, weddings, family gatherings, dinners or charity fundraisers!

AMBUSH SCENARIOS

COMEDIAN CARNAGE

This is the scenario listed above with the comedian being with his girlfriend and then his wife arrives.

DUELING COMEDIANS

A pair of comedians compete for the audience's approval to be the headliner with their manager caught in the middle!

CORPORATE TAKE OVER

Corporate bigwigs show up at the event where a potential takeover is happening. With the murder the attendees realize that it is all part of a show. This is useful to fight off rumors of such a takeover happening in the company.

TEAM BUILDING GONE AMOK

Our team comes in to provide a team building workshop with a lead, his girlfriend, another assistant and later the wife arriving. It's a great way to bring team building to your group without them realizing that the team building was the actual goal.

THE BRIDE AND THE BARTENDER

For weddings, we can have one of the bartenders be a former boyfriend. The rest writes itself!

CATERING CHAOS

We have a variety of approaches to be part of the catering staff and have the party go off the rails.

Even though we have those themes, really we customize to you and can develop any scenario. Our cost can fluctuate greatly as we adjust the number of actors and the various skills that they might have to have to meet the needs of your scenario. Simply discuss these options with our director to learn more.

Likewise, the scripts can be adjusted to bring your audience members under suspicion of being the culprits. Information known about their past can be intertwined to simply dig them deeper into the murder mystery.

Because every corporate event and private party is custom designed you have to contact THEY improv directly to receive a quote for your banquet. Prices range based on the costs for a show. The more actors, the more props, the more difficult to be on-site, the larger the event, the more the writing, the higher the cost. There are an extreme number of options to take into account. Contact us for a detailed quote and we'll help clarify.
