“Death by Hairspray (A Totally Tubular 80s Murder Mystery)”
May 9th – Aug 23rd, 2025

Bust out your neon parachute pants, slap on those shoulder pads and fluff up those mall bangs, because we’re going back to the 80’s to uncover what’s rotten at John Hughes High. The big game’s coming, but wannabe Vice Principal Mr. Peter Prickle wants to cancel the most bodacious event of the year…homecoming! Everyone is like, so totally wiggin’ out! But we’ve got a sneaking suspicion someone’s not gonna take it anymore. If he bites the dust, we’ll need a real genius to figure out “Who’s Bad.”

Dress in your raddest 80s gear and jump into the mystery at your comfort level. Join Holly Bingbald, Farris Bugler, Mitchel Myers, Don Bender, and the Poison Fan Club as they figure out whodunit during Death by Hairspray! It’s gonna be, like, totally killer!

“Dead! Like Me.”
Aug 29th – Nov 1st, 2025

Join us for an exciting evening of murder, mystery and mayhem at the deadliest comedy dinner theater show in town. Enjoy a fantastic three-course dinner at the famously haunted Lemp Mansion and figure out who-dun-it during Dead! Like me…

Death is in the air as guests join Marilyn Monroe, Babe Ruth, Juliet and her Romeo, Nixon and other grizzly ghouls as they emerge from the Land of The Dead for the annual Brotherhood of Obituary Occupants Union Meeting (That’s BOO for short). Be sure to leave your pulse at home because everyone at this party is dead… even you! There are lots of shadowy characters at this fun, interactive event but none are as sneaky as P.T. Barnum himself. He’s always got some devious slimy trick up his translucent sleeves. Gee, hope nothing happens to him! But just in case it does…will you figure out who-dun-it? Or will all waggling fingers be pointing at you?
