The Meridian Little Theatre is gearing up again to put a little mystery into their dinner theatre event. An Inheritance of Murder. Colonel Klaus Von Strudel has died at the tender age of 94 and his friends and relatives have been gathered from far and wide, along with some unexpected guests, to hear the reading of his will. Someone is going to inherit the Colonel’s money and huge estate, but who will receive the lion’s share? Will it be his young, gold-digging wife, Fredericka? Or will his sons, Brick and Egbert, get any money? Or is there possibly a third party that we don’t know about? A traditional drawing-room murder mystery that will have you guessing whodunit right through dessert! The show features audience participation that allows audience members to actually be in the play. If they so choose, attendees can take a “character script” and when prompted, stand and “act out” their parts.
In addition to a devious murder, audiences will enjoy a delicious 3-course meal served in between acts. At each performance, the last act allows the audience to guess who the murderer is. One name will be drawn from all the correct guesses and be selected as “Best Detective”. And among all the audience members who selected a character, one of those will be chosen as the “Best Actor”. Each best detective and best actor at each performance will receive special recognition.
The performers for this year’s murder mystery dinner theatre are Sidney Covington who was part of last year’s dinner theatre, Murder at the Long Branch Saloon. She also recently lit up the MLT stage in The Red Velvet Cake War, Rex’s Exes, Honky Tonk Angels, and Steel Magnolias. She can be heard on the Friday edition of Mornings in Meridian on WALT. Sidney’s co-star is Clint Brown whose last performance at MLT was in A Good Old Fashioned Redneck Country Christmas. And in MLT’s season finale last year, Clint portrayed Igor in Mel Brooks’ masterful musical – Young Frankenstein.
Tickets are just $45 per person that includes a delicious meal and a devious murder! It all adds up to a delightfully good time. The performances will take place at the Meridian Little Theatre in the ballroom on March 21st, 22nd, and 23rd at 6:00pm with a final performance on Sunday afternoon of March 24th at 12:30pm. To get your tickets stop by the MLT box office Monday – Friday between 9am and 2pm. Or call the box office during regular business hours at 601-482-6371.
