Murder on the Menu - Christmas Theme Murder Mystery Dinner -King George Bed & Breakfast - Want to take part in an unforgettable evening of laughter and intrigue while dining in style? Beginning in November and continuing through the winter months, we will be hosting Murder Mystery dinners for groups of 8-16.

The premise is that one of the guests is guilty of committing a murder and while he or she tries to elude detection, the other guests try to solve the crime. Participants receive an info package about their character they will portray as well as suggested questions, secrets and costume recommendations to assist them in their role. The only rule is that you cannot lie!

The evening begins at 6:00PM and includes a 5-course dinner beginning with hors d'oeuvres and a 'cocktail hour'; then everyone proceeds to the table to enjoy what happens next! Remember, once the murderer has killed, he/she will not hesitate to do so again! So sharpen your wits and enjoy being a suspect, victim or innocent bystander while you solve the mystery!

The fee per person is only $50.00 +HST. Overnight accommodation can also be provided at an additional cost. Please call to confirm.

Fri Nov 12
The Salmon Museum Players Present “Dealt a Deadly Hand” Murder at the River Room Casino Get out your lucky hat, because the Salmon Museum Players are about to unveil a mystery dinner show that spoofs the movie “Casablanca” and the dream of winning the jackpot. Penned by Tony Schwartz and Marylou Ambrose, the show, Dealt a Deadly Hand: Murder at the River Room Casino, takes place at Rick’s club, the first legal gambling casino in Doaktown. Rick dreams of striking it rich – then two crafty aboriginals try to claim the land and his gold-digging ex-wife Lola shows up. Throw in a two-faced lawyer, an Australian Croc Chaser with bad luck, and two little old ladies on a gambling mission, and "making a killing" takes on a whole new meaning.

Will the aboriginals take over the casino? Will the Choc Chaser win back his farm? Will the Portabella sisters find their missing g-string? Will the lawyer decide how to play his cards? Will Lola and Rick get back together for richer or poorer? And will Rick ever be cured of his Bogart complex?

Keep your eyes and ears open because someone will cash in his or her chips tonight, and it’s up to the audience to solve the crime! An Audience-Participation Murder Mystery-Comedy.

Tickets for the dinner and show are $60.00 with a 25.00 tax receipt. For information and reservations, call 506-365-7787. Atlantic Salmon Museum
