I was commissioned to write this game for a mom who was planning a surprise 21st birthday party for her son who is a super fan of Masterchef. If you are a bit squeamish you might want to choose another game.

This murder mystery game is unscripted; each one of your guests are assigned a character who has a in depth background with clues leading up to the actual murder which must be shared with other suspects to solve the mystery.

Take on the role of an outrageously fun character who is a suspect in a murder investigation.You will need to use your wits and detective skills to catch the killer in your midst or try and get away with murder by framing other suspects.

You will not be doing any acting, script reading or stage performing.You and your fellow suspects will interrogate each other, taking note of any clues, motives or alibis revealed to the group in order for you to catch a murderer!Terribly fake International accents and over-actors are most welcome! All that is needed from you is a sense of humour!
