Murder, mystery, and laughs in San Francisco's Theater District! Join America's largest interactive comedy murder mystery dinner show at The Marker Hotel—a 1910 Beaux-Arts landmark steps from Union Square and iconic cable cars. Interrogate suspects, examine clues, and solve the crime—all while enjoying a fantastic multi-course dinner. Here's the twist: our actors aren't in costume. They're hidden in the audience, so anyone could be the killer—even the person sitting next to you. It's a one-of-a-kind social experience perfect for date nights, birthdays, corporate team building, and group celebrations. Tickets include the award-winning show, full plated dinner, waitstaff gratuity, and prizes for top sleuths. Private events available.
