Noted bootleg wine makers
Bunny and Clyde have invited their closest friends and enemies to join
them for an evening of inter-active fun at Summerset Winery.
Rumor has it that Clyde may meet his demise during the course of the
evening - and that the murderer could even be the person sitting beside
you! Will the bumbling French detective Jacques La Cop be the
first to solve the crime and win a prize - or will you?
Actor / comedian KEVIN
O'BRIEN is well known for his "killer entertainment". For over
ten years he and his actors have been performing his inter-active
comedy murder mysteries literally all over the world.
He explains how his
mysteries work: "As the audience arrives they are assigned new
identities for the evening -- some of them becoming suspects in the
crime. The shows are very fast-paced and funny, half scripted and
half improvised. As the mystery unfolds, a murder occurs, and the
audience must figure out ‘who dunnit'. People have a tremendous
time hamming it up."
Indeed, O'Brien plays
multiple parts in each of his mysteries -- sometimes playing as many as
five characters per show. In addition, each mystery has a
different theme, which is plain from titles such as I'LL BE HOMICIDAL
FOR CHRISTMAS, GILLIGAN'S ISLAND OF DEATH, MURDER ON THE DISORIENTED
EXPRESS, and MAYBERRY R.I.P.
O'Brien and his actors
are on the road year round, and have even performed at military bases
as far away as Korea and Australia. Kevin's troupe appears
regularly on board My Old Kentucky Dinner Train in Bardstown, Kentucky,
and at several wineries in the mid-west. In addition, they have
performed at the Governor's Mansion in Missouri, and for HBO in New
York. He and his actors can be seen in several episodes of The
Apostle of Common Sense on EWTN. For more information about our show, call 515-961-3545 or 1-888-WHO-DN-IT.
