Vermont Theatre Company to host murder-mystery dinner

NEWFANE — Enjoy a special night out with dinner and a theater experience with The Vermont Theatre Company on Friday, Nov. 3, from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m., at the NewBrook Firehouse on Route 30.

According to a news release, “it's Mardi Gras in New Orleans and the Krewe of Midas is holding their annual masquerade ball. Old scores are settled and family secrets are exposed when Pierre Dupre, the King of the Krewe, is murdered. Who strangled the Mardi Gras King with a priceless vintage necklace?

“Was it the Magnolia Queen and her Cajun fiance who wanted his millions? Was it Pierre's young wife that he brought back from Las Vegas? Did his personal lawyer or his personal chef kill him for his wealth and power? Was it his next-door neighbor, the eccentric Gothic novelist? Help Inspector Bourbon St. Cloud get to the bottom of the crime (and perhaps the bottom of a bottle as well!).”

Come masked, costumed, or just as you are. Salad, an entree, coffee, and desserts are included in your ticket price of $40. Beer and wine by donation. This show is for those over 21.

Tickets are $40 and will not be sold at the door. Visit www.brownpapertickets.com/event/3094228 to purchase tickets.

Proceeds go to the School Club of the Townshend Elementary School, which sponsors field trips, winter sports, arts residencies, and more for students.
