SUMMARY:Death By Disco: Murder Mystery Dinner & Show
DESCRIPTION:The Town of Apex will be hosting a “mysterious” event at the Halle Cultural Arts Center\, when It’s A Mystery performs “Death By Disco\,” an original “whodunit\,” while you dine on killer cuisine. \nWe’ll take you back to 1977\, when you’ll be a spectator at a high stakes disco dance contest sponsored by ShowTown Records. This could make someone a star… or it could be someone’s last dance! \nYou will encounter Dana Winter\, the disco diva and aspiring singer; Vinnie Vinucci\, her dance partner with many moves; Damian Moonrock\, the popular disc jockey; Tanya Terrell\, the country singing sensation; Marie Aquanette\, the dancing hairdresser; and Sylvester Wolfe\, ShowTown Records label exec. \nIf a dastardly deed should be committed\, you’ll be called upon to question the suspects and formulate your own notion of “whodunit” and why. \n“Hustle” and reserve your spot at the contest now. It should be an evening to die for. \n(1970’s attire encouraged\, but not required!) \nYour ticket includes a full dinner of gourmet pizza\, curated salads\, and dessert; So come hungry for both great food and juicy intrigue.
