ORDER THIS TITLE
This hilarious murder mystery comedy is easy to produce and perfect for either a stage production or dinner theatre. Rosemary Saint-John is a loud, annoying hypochondriac convinced she is allergic to water. Celebrating her birthday at a restaurant with her four kooky sisters–a hippie, a valley girl, a trucker and a banker–Rosemary makes enemies with everyone around her. When she disappears and is presumed murdered, the only objective witnesses in the restaurant are the audience members, who must cast their vote. Was it one of Rosemary’s sisters? The self-taught detective? The passionate French chef? The polite and proper maître d’? The sarcastic waiter? No one is above suspicion in this delightful dinner theatre murder mystery! Immensely popular with audiences, this play is appropriate for young performers, while older actors will enjoy improvised audience interaction. Whether for young or old, you’ll find lots of laughs at the café!

We recently purchased scripts and rights to perform Cafe Murder for an Independent Alabama School Drama festival. I am happy to announce our kids placed 1st place at Regional and 3rd place at State with a cutting from this play! Thanks for being easy to work with!! Tricia Oliver, Lee-Scott Academy, Auburn, AL
My cast was fantastic. We set up as a dinner theater, and one of our families who owns a Mexican restaurant provided food. The play was funny and engaging for the cast and the audience.
I liked this play because we were able to use our cafeteria because of the setting and didn’t have to spend much money on sets. I highly recommend this play for beginning clubs and actors. Patti Guercio Landreau, Central Freshman Academy, Phenix City, AL
