Absolutely. If guests are purchasing tickets separately, email the list of guests to our contact link and we will be sure to seat everyone together.  Please call the box office for details.  If you have that one person that you had to invite, but you don’t really enjoy their company, we will be happy to create an error and accidentally seat them at the opposite end of the room.

Food options vary from venue to venue, but are listed in the description section of the calendar. Call or email with any questions. Dietary restrictions can be accommodated at all venues with advance notice. Sorry, we cannot accommodate dietary restrictions involving cannibalism, or the consumption of insects or live animals.

A sense of humor and one green m & m wrapped in a snotty Kleenex. Please do not bring explosives. It makes the actors nervous.

Check in is always half an hour before the meal. For the Hellas Restaurant location, check in starts at 6:30 pm…so, if you are OCD please arrive EXACTLY at 6:30 pm. If you are not, any time between 6:00 and 6:30 is fine.

Tickets are emailed and can be printed on any printer. We can also mail the tickets. It is not strictly necessary to bring a paper ticket, as we have an electronic record of all purchases. So, if you forget your tickets at home or you are unable to print the ticket – no worries. Just present yourself at the box office and say “tickets…we don’t need no stinkin’ tickets.”

Absolutely. You can even give us your cell phone, if you want to.

Each child is different. Our general guidelines advise PG13. Particularly with the murder mystery, there can be some more mature themes. Please feel free to call the box office to discuss whether the show is appropriate for your child. Generally the shows do contain some sexual innuendo. If your child catches on – we didn’t teach it to them.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Panic. Scream….Run around in circles tearing your hair out….then, please call or email the box office to make sure your order processed correctly. We can always re-send the tickets. If you have simply forgotten the ticket, or you were unable to print it out at the last minute, do not worry. We have an electronic copy of all purchases onsite.

Ticket purchases are not refundable, however, if an unforeseen emergency arises, they can be transferred to another show date (subject to availability).

Unfortunately, due to numerous food fights in the past, cakes are officially prohibited.

Shows at the Sunset Restaurant tend to sell out 4-6 weeks in advance.  There is a waiting list for sold out shows, but we advise that tickets be purchased about a month in advance, and we do add new show dates for shows sold out 6-8 weeks in advance.
