Murder Mystery Fundraiser - How It Works
.
A murder mystery dinner is not only a great night's entertainment that can be hosted in restaurants,hotels,boats,cruises,stately homes and castles but it is the ideal fun entertainment attraction for a fundraising dinner or activity.
Murder mysteries are an interactive clue game, where you the guests become the detectives in a murder and must figure out who among the suspects has committed the unspeakable crime. Every suspect in the murder mystery game has a motive and the means but during the three course murder mystery meal, everyone tries to find out who is the murderer, while the murderer tries to avoid detection. You must use your sleuthing skills to find the real villain.
Pick a murder mystery format that involves tables of detectives who attempt to solve a deadly whodunnit?The challenge is to answer three questions:
Who committed the murder [ Murderer ] How [ Method ] Why [ Motive ]
It should begin with a pre-dinner drinks reception whereby the characters meet and greet your guests, setting the scene. Once all your guests have arrived, they will be seated for dinner.
Guests will be seated into equal tables but would suggest no larger than groups of 10 for dinner, as any larger becomes crowd control. Each table are invited to play the inter-active part of detectives and working together over dinner, they will try to solve the crime.
The audience will witnesses scripted scenes featuring events that took place before the murder was committed and these scenes introduce the audience to the victim, the suspects and present many vital clues.
The members of the audience meet each of the suspects and the victim, as they join them at their tables during dinner and desert, for INTERROGATION. The purpose of this is that the suspects and victim will be marking the guest detectives on their performance as a team of super sleuths.
To conclude the event there will be a presentation of the audience’s dénouement and a performance of the dastardly deed itself. The declared winners will be the detective team who solves the dastardly deed by correctly answering the 3 'M's and scoring the most points. Certificates are then awarded for the 'Super Sleuths' [Winning Team] and to the 'Most Defective Detectives' [Losing Team].
This is an absolutely must to consider for a fundraising dinner or activity by corporate companies, charitable organisations, Masonic lodges and rotary clubs, as you can raise funds from a percentage of the tickets, run a silent auction, and have photographs taken as a memento of the event which you can sell.
