Unravel the threads of deception at this immersive engagement party, where everyone’s a suspect and the truth is your greatest challenge! Engaged to Death features a hilarious cast of Triangle actors and improvisers, in this whodunnit by local playwright Doug Simpson and directed by Noelle Azarelo. Co-produced by the City of Raleigh, the event includes food and mocktails, and patrons are invited to dress in 1920’s attire.
Throughout the 90-minute show, patrons will explore the beautiful Tucker House as this zany original story unfolds. The party includes music, light h’orderves, and themed mocktails. The audience may (but are not required to) interact with the characters as they mill throughout the house.
