About the Event

Break out your neon, tease that hair, and get ready to flash back to the 80s—where the fashion is loud, the music is louder, and murder is totally on the setlist.

The Roseau County Historical Society & Museum invites you to a one-night-only interactive mystery dinner theater featuring professional improv actors from The Murder Mystery Company (as seen on ABC’s Shark Tank). This fundraising event supports the creation of new educational and hands-on exhibits at the Roseau County Museum.


🎭 The Story

The stars have gathered for the ultimate 80s concert, but backstage drama turns deadly. Secrets leak into the spotlight, and before the encore hits… someone won’t make it to curtain call.

This isn’t Miami Vice. This is like…murder.

You and your table will work together to help solve the crime. Read your clue cards, watch the action unfold, and decide whodunit. You can participate as much—or as little—as you’d like. Just don’t forget your readers!
