Sponsored by the Friends of the Tecumseh Library and the Masonic Lodge of Tecumseh, our Mystery Dinner this year is "Murder at the Pie Auction."
After years of trying unsuccessfully, the small town of Mynute, Alaska, finally lands the famous Mother Mabel’s Pie Baking Competition — but it was all due to a typo mistaking Mynute for Minot! The contest looks to be a disaster with no media or publicity. To add to the tension, one of the contestants is writing a tell-all book about the seamy side of competitive pie baking. Making matters even worse, just hours before the competition begins, the pie judge goes missing. When he turns up dead while the audience is bidding for the pies, the characters turn on each other as they try to figure out who committed the murder. With an ample serving of motive and all the right ingredients for murder, this is the perfect dinner theatre recipe for big laughs, outrageous characters, and audience participation.
