Murder Mystery Comedy Dinner Theater
What we provide is a fun experience for your family, friends, date or team. How we do that is with a Murder Mystery Comedy Dinner Theater
That has Audience Participation
(volunteers stand up in the Murder Mystery and read their cue card we provide)
Stand up and read your cue card.
That has laughs
(It is comedy. Not a serious CSI adventure)
Our audience member, playing the victim in our story, dies by falling into a pool of sharks. The comedy here is, it was a small kids wading pool full of one big stuffed shark and smaller plush fish.
That has Dinner
(Courses served in-between each act)
I believe that is the Maple Bourbon Pork Chop he is having for dinner.
- Penne Pasta Primavera
- Chicken Marsala
- Baked Walley
- Maple Bourbon Pork Chop
- Ribeye
- Children’s Penne Pasta
That has Murder
(Then it becomes a game as you try to figure out Whodunnit. You just might find out it was you!)
Some of our guests really ham up their death scene.
Our Sit Rep as of 5/6/21
We are going to restart murdering people for fun in May of 2021. (It’s a joke NSA.)
We will do the Social Distancing by spacing everybody out. Masks will be required. We can be at 50% capacity.
The Virus shots are going out and things are looking better each day. When the date comes around I will look at the COVID situation and we will do our best to reopen. Right now, it is looking very good.
Like a Phoenix rising from it’s ashes we shall rise to party again.
May 22nd is our first scheduled show in over a year.
Come join us as we return to have fun, laughs, dinner and a good time.
Yeah baby, we are back!

We can do a private show for you at our location or yours.
The last show we did, before everything closed down, was a private show. A gentleman had us out to a location of his choosing for his wife’s surprise Birthday party.
Don’t have a location? Then we can find a location for the show.
Zoom show. Yes, we can do a show for you on Zoom. A group from Vincenness, Indiana had schedule a trip to us in May to have a private show. Then the Virus thingy hit and the trip was cancelled. The show wasn’t though. We did it for them on Zoom and we can do it for you too.
Call 317 684-0668 to schedule your fun! Or Email me at Joe@TheMysteryCafeIndy.com

Show for the year 2020 & 2021:
We didn’t get to do the show very often due to COVID procedures cancelling all performances. So, we decided to bring it back for the year 2021.
Death in the Roaring Twenties
In the year 2020, Madison Grace Connor is your average high school student. She has a YouTube channel, she’s on Instagram, and she TikToks! She has to do a big report on the 1920s. So she does what any 21st Century teen would do – uses a time traveling app to zap herself back 100 years! She’s now a first-hand witness to prohibition, flappers, gangsters, and…murder? Uh-oh! Her 2020 presence in 1920 has altered history! Can she fix the past and find a killer before her phone battery dies? Find out by booking your ticket to see “Death in the Roaring Twenties” at the Mystery Cafe of Indianapolis!
