THEY IMPROV MYSTERY TEAR SHEETS

This page has links to download information about our mystery offerings. Simply click on one or more of the links below to begin downloading a PDF on one of the many things we can do for your group.


These sheets do not include pricing, but include more information as to how these events operate. Consistent with most of these events, we do not provide the venue or food, we provide the entertainment. We come to you.


The links are divided generally by categories with links within that category. If you do not find what you are looking for, simply contact us by email or at 866-219-4386 and we'd be happy to help you.

Murder Mystery Overview
This has an overview of our murder mystery offerings. In the sections below, you will find links to pages with more detail about each.

Theft and Heist Mysteries
This is a page explaining how we can go beyond murders for our mysteries. For those who are concerned with the content of a murder, these shows are your answer. All of the options below are available as thefts as well.

The Providence Addendum
Some want to increase participation for the attendees without them being suspects or even vital to the story line. For this, we have created the Providence Addendum. It adds on top of any of our events by having characters at each table that are generic and gender neutral. The Doctor, the Lawyer, the Uber Driver, etc. These characters have information about some of the suspects and allow the guests to live in the fantasy of the evening with us. The characters adapt to whatever structure or plot and have some details to push the story forward.

Presenting Answers
Usually we just have our clients writing their answers. We could allow teams to make presentations as to who they think did it and to walk through the crime. There is no tear sheet for this as it is just an option, but worthy of mentioning here. The same as us running costume contests or speaking like a pirate for appropriately themed events.


Mysteries With Our Actors:
Gala Murders
For the largest of groups. This uses a large cast including additional entertainers like singers and dancers providing more activities.

Straight Murder
This brings 4 to 7 of our performers who present more of a traditional immersive mystery experience with a variety of themes.

Ambush Murder
Truly a unique experience and a specialty of our company. We create a murder mystery experience that unfolds in front of an audience without them realizing that it is a show. This involves some form of moral conundrum that brings the audience into the mystery and makes them complicit in the wrongdoing.

The Frick and Frack Show
This is a program that we developed to allow one or two stand-up comedians to create a murder mystery on the fly with people from the audience. It goes wherever the audience takes them and it is fly by the seat of your pants fun! While technically a participation event, it is really crowd work as the people don't know they're participating until they are already in it.


Participation Mysteries:
The Cambridge Solution
This is the one that started it all. Named because it was Harvard Smart, The Cambridge Solution uses several people provided by our clients as the characters. These people speak to everyone else who usually work as teams to try to solve the crime.

The Dartmouth Plan
For smaller groups, the Dartmouth Plan is more of a mix-and-mingle event where everyone is a character. This makes it a great ice-breaking game as it gets everyone talking with everyone else.

The Princeton Permutation
For larger groups, the Princeton Permutation is a version of the Cambridge Solution using speeches by the characters instead or, or in addition to, the characters speaking with everyone.

The Columbia Exposition
To take advantage of some of the amazing venues that our clients bring us to, we can have characters stationed in different locations answering questions to allow the others to explore the venue and enjoy the facility.

The Penn-Ultimate
For extremely large groups that want to have a mix and mingle event with everyone as a character, The Penn-Ultimate has proven to be up to the challenge. Groups of characters try to assess the other groups and then get into the specifics of finding an individual culprit.

The Cornell Conundrum
A little more academic and presentational, teams pick from a selection of suspects to prosecute for the case and make a presentation using a variety of formats in front of the other teams.


Other Mystery Directions for Shows:
Murder Town USA
Adapted from a British TV show, our grizzled detective uses Detectives-In-Training to see if they can solve a crime by immersing them in a mystery scene and talking to comedic suspects. Can they follow the breadcrumbs to solve the crime?

The Mystery Turducken
You read it correctly! It's a mystery wrapped in a mystery! The characters present during a presentational mystery become the suspects as the leader of the game is killed after the resolution of the first show.


Mystery Themes:
Mystery Themes
This tear sheet has a variety of themes available. We literally have hundreds, so this is focused on the more popular. If you want to discuss others that we have or to customize one completely, simply call us to discuss.

Mystery Themes Web Page
This is a link to a page within our site with more information about the themes along with a longer description of each. This has more complete information but is a little more difficult to print. However, you can share the URL.
