HOW TO PLAY
A Seven Corpse Dinner is an audience-interactive murder mystery event.
The actors mingle with the guests through cocktails and dinner, having
conversations with the guests and with each other. Watch and listen
closely! We encourage ALL guests to snoop, eavesdrop, and be nosy!!
There may be arguments, secret liaisons, notes passed, deals done,
loves lost and found, agreements made and broken! After dinner, one (or
maybe more) of the characters "die". An investigator character takes
charge to question suspects and find the murderer, with the help of the
audience. Guests may become as involved as they like, and are
encouraged to invent their own roles and relationships to the cast.

PLOT
The latest RealiTV show "Date A Hunk" comes to town, and you are
invited to the live filming of the final episode where the handsome
bachelor will make his choice between the two finalists, a drag queen
and a gay-lister (i.e., an Anderson Cooper-type). Will there be wedding
bells? Will the disgruntled heterosexual, a formerly well-known reality
TV star get his way and shut the show down? Or will the outcome be
more...?

support the festival due to the "Pride" theme.
