What makes Mystery Theatre Unlimited different? Two big things — our shows and our actors.
Our Shows
Lots of companies offer murder mysteries — many pull from the same stack of stock scripts. We don’t.
Our original comedy mysteries break the mold of stock characters and clichéd settings. We emphasize originality, fun, and creativity. Our resident comedy writers (also performers) have 30+ years of experience and have written 70+ shows exclusively for Mystery Theatre Unlimited.
Our Actors
We’re a tight ensemble of professional actors, improvisers, singers, and comedians. No cattle-call auditions; no random ringers. The cast evolves, but it’s always a core team that works together constantly — and in comedy, nothing beats real ensemble chemistry.
Real talk: A few other companies meet a high bar — credit where it’s due. But many dinner-mystery outfits are formulaic, which gives the genre a bad name. We’re different.
And There’s More
We stand out not just for what we do — but for what we don’t claim to do.
- We do adapt our shows to fit groups.
- We don’t franchise our shows. They’re unique and original. With rare exceptions, you won’t see our shows anywhere else.
- We don’t inflate our credentials. Our actors are working local pros — no made-up star bios.

Go ahead. Compare us to any other murder mystery company. You’ll see why we’ve outlasted most everyone else.
