The Dinner Detective is America’s LARGEST murder mystery dinner show, with over 90 locations nationwide! Our shows are set in the present day and take place in real time. We perform weekend public shows at 2 locations: The DoubleTree by Hilton Saint Paul East and at The Courtyard Minneapolis Downtown, with possible private shows booked off site.
This is an ongoing run. Most shows take place on Saturday nights. Rehearsal is from 4:00 - 5:45 PM, and the show is from 6:00 - 9:00 PM. Pre-show rehearsals are for that night’s cast only. You will not work every show; we can accommodate most schedules.

Roles are open to all actors, improvisers, and performers. You must be comfortable interacting with audience members in semi-scripted situations. You will be expected to blend in with the audience during the show. Actors receive compensation of $50 - $100 depending on role, and actors also receive dinner and performer gratuity. Actors are scheduled according to their availability, collected each month.
