Although not everyone can or has to play a murder suspect, it mostly involves talking "offstage" with others one on one, and just a few "lines". Once you see how everyone in the room is saying ridiculous things and having fun, you'll see it's no big deal.

The show adults-only as content is appropriate for audiences 18 and up. Valid ID is required upon entering the venue.

It's a social game, your group gathers information by talking to murder suspects, some played by guests like yourselves. There may be optional puzzles and clues you can figure out at your own pace, or just sit back and enjoy the show.
