Tacoma Little Theatre brings back their Murder Mystery Dinners with KNOCK ‘EM DEAD, by Paula Hilton. This year we are at a new location, THE LA QUINTA INN & SUITES!

Who’s ready for a night of divas, drama, and deadly secrets?

Set in the glitzy (and slightly chaotic) world of show business, Knock ’Em Dead brings together a cast of unforgettable characters:

  • Augusta Wind, a fad-obsessed health guru diva.

  • Marion Haste, a country queen still searching for her cowboy.

  • Royal Payne, a larger-than-life star with an even larger entourage.

  • Don Kashane, an “agent to the stars” with a flair for bad piano jokes.

  • Rusty Pipes, who desperately wants to perform (whether or not anyone wants him to).

  • Stan Back, the small-town piano player with a big secret.

When egos clash, secrets spill, and a gun goes off, the spotlight turns to the audience: Who pulled the trigger? Guests are invited to follow the clues, question the suspects, and ultimately solve the crime while enjoying a full evening of laughter, live performance, and mystery.

Dinner includes:

-APPETIZER BUFFET-
Assorted meats, cheeses, and crackers

-PLATED SALAD-
Assorted greens, candied walnuts, dried cranberries, and bleu cheese with a balsamic vinaigrette (on the side).

-YOUR CHOICE OF MAIN ENTREE-
CHICKEN
Chicken breast with a creamy white wine and sliced mushroom sauce, served with rice pilaf, mixed vegetables, rolls, and butter.
-OR-

Vegetable stir fry with Asian teriyaki sauce.

-DESSERT-

Coffee, Tea, and Water are included. Other beverages including alcohol are available for purchase at the bar.

Tickets are $80.00 per person (includes dinner, gratuity, and show).

Come hungry for a meal and a mystery — and remember, in this show, everyone’s a suspect until the final reveal!
