Kansas City Christmas 2016: Robert, Rebecca, Jennifer, and Sherman

Big Daddy Rob Jones hosted the event in the Embassy Suites Hotel. The evening’s main event was an interactive murder mystery set in an early 1900’s Speak Easy. Many of the employee’s attending took the theme to heart and dressed in costumes reminiscent of mobsters and flappers. Even our resident St. Nick (Sherman Dodd) came in a red three piece zoot suit with a matching hat!

The after dinner entertainment began with an employee from each table chosen to be a character in the storyline. Each table team was provided with a full bio of the character/suspect. A detective was on hand to interview the suspects and provide clues. Funny money flowed so you could “buy” information from other teams to identify the prime suspect, motive and opportunity.

Characters included:

• Trish Fish/Girl Friday – Brenda Willette
• Doug Graves/Rival Mobster – Cesar Correa
• Genocide/Assassin – Christina Glenn (Guest of Cindy Miles)
• Rat Finkle /Snitch – John Anderson
• Gus the Milkman/Secret Bootlegger – Michael Bradley
• Sylous/Smut Magazine owner – Shawn Clayton
• Scott Free/Playboy – Howard Owens
• Eric/3^rd Left Hand Man – Jacob Dick

A special mention is deserved by Big Ears John Sortore and Crazy Sherman Dodd for receiving extra attention. Both were randomly pulled from the crowd to be questioned as potential bootleggers. Sherman’s “interrogation” by singer and actress Amanda Lay was a memorable part of the evening.

The team who identified themselves as The Real Mob was able to solve the mystery. The killer was…..Eric – Jacob Dick!
