The MobfatherYou are cordially invited to the birthday party of Mob boss Carmine Cannelloni. This powerful Don promises you’ll have a drop dead good time. Anyone who is anyone will be there, from his matriarchal wife, to his heir apparent son and his new wife, his right hand man in the business, to his biggest rival. With a group like this, what could possibly go wrong? But when someone goes to “sleep with the fishes” in the middle of the party, no one is safe from suspicion. Come join us for a night of dinner and death, when someone gets murdered in the middle of the party - it’s up to YOU to help the detective figure out whodunit. A cast of hilarious characters will help guide you through this evening of clue collecting and finger pointing. Which one of them is guilty?
