Great Show, very entertaining! It was excellent.
– Taylor Huett
First mystery I’ve attended and it was awesome.
– Cat Michael
Enjoyed that the director talked with us outside and enjoyed interactions with actors.
– Kris Gotling
When will there be another show like this…Nevermore
– Tina Dyer
I’ve never seen our team so invested at any other company event. The actors were hilarious and great at interaction. The custom touches in the script were amazing. This was an unqualified success.
– Robert Haynes, Parexel
We were looking for something fun and different that appealed to a diverse group. The show was amazing. Everyone had a great time.
– Kara Shaffer, LCG, Inc.
Poe’s Last Stanza as the anchor to this gem of an evening deserves repetition somewhere (or many wheres) in Baltimore, Poe’s final stomping grounds. If you were not among the fortunate 75 or 80 people to have enjoyed its debut, you have missed a rare treat. And that’s a damned shame.
– Broadway World Review
Drop Dead, Gorgeous!’ is outrageous, clever, and drop dead funny!
– Maryland Theatre Guide
Good food and strong characters in an interactive environment combine to make “Drop Dead, Gorgeous!” …a show to die for.
– Topher Forhecz of the Maryland Gazette
