We lead the way for murder mystery shows in Northern Virginia for private parties, banquets and corporate events. We bring those skills to entertain your Arlington corporate event, banquet or private party with a cast of detectives, quirky suspects and plots customized to each group at a venue of your choosing. This works very well for a luncheon or for a dinner show. We will have your group trying to discover whodunit while laughing along the way. For mid-sized groups, we have a team building version called the Cambridge Solution using the bosses as characters and teams working together to solve the crime, which is a ton of fun and appropriate for family gatherings as well. For smaller groups, we have a game show version where the participants play all the characters in a mix and mingle party designed to get people to talk to each other and have a great time in a no-pressure environment.


We discovered a very modern problem. More and more people are opting to work remotely and this has caused a problem that we call RUST. So, we provide Rust workshops along with activities to allow people to mingle, interact, and to basically get used to speaking with each other again in person. This is great for remote employees as well as for conferences or business development. We have mix and mingle mysteries, the Secret Agent Academy, The Pirate Academy, Rust Workshops, Scavenger Hunts, and other methods to get people directly engaged. We can also take these programs, like the Secret Agent Academy, and use the theme to teach your employees about Emotional Intelligence and enhance their ability to speak with clients while getting them to bond with one another! This can be done in a conference space or even at one of the area attractions!

OUR GREEN COMMITMENT While ultimately we serve our clients in the way that they require, we work hard to reduce the carbon footprint of any event. We recycle, utilize local talent when preferable, and look to leave places better than we found them. When we do travel, we take pains to reduce our impact on the environment.

green events

Improvisational comedy is a great way to have an ensemble entertain your group. Catching the lightning in a bottle, you experience moments that can never be repeated because everything is made up in the moment. The audience shares the creative process and can be active participants in the fun.


Game shows invite your group to participate more directly through actually coming up on stage, and being put through TV Show-styled game shows to compete for not-very-expensive prizes (we wouldn't want anyone unhappy that they didn't win). This includes many of television's more popular shows along with more customized shows for your group. Truth Be Told is an offshoot of a popular British game show for smaller groups that involves competitors defending statements about their past which may or may not be true as the participants get to know each other better. Trivia Nights, similar to the popular pub games, gets teams to bond with one another and find out more about their coworkers outside of work.

In the Northern Virginia area, Arlington serves as a place for families to hold their special events. With weddings, engagements, Bachelor and Bachelorette celebrations, birthdays, reunions, anniversaries and just about anything else you can think of, the hotel and banquet facilities constantly have gatherings. Likewise, families will have events for young adults or children. With birthdays, Sweet 16s, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, Project Graduations, After or Post Proms and holidays, we can create entertainment that is focused on the kids.


As the port of entry for our nation's capital, the county is synonymous with Washington, DC, simply separated by the Potomac River. National Airport brings most of the visitors to the area, they then stay in Crystal City and take the Metro if they have to go downtown. That's not to say that the county isn't a destination of its own. The Pentagon is located here, meaning that all the associated defense contractors and ancillary services consider this prime real estate and place of commerce. For tourists, there's Arlington Cemetery, the Iwo Jima Memorial, the Air Force Memorial and the views of Washington. There's also plenty of shopping in Crystal City, Ballston and Pentagon City. This means that it's self-contained and can handle anything people might need. That makes the hotels and convention facilities in Crystal City, Rosslyn and the rest of the area are prime locations for Arlington VA corporate events, banquets and private parties or for a murder mystery for your own group.

food venue

WE COME TO YOU!
We work with groups that are small, medium and large in venues of all types. We can come to hotels, banquet halls, resorts, meeting rooms and homes. With so many different types and sizes of groups, it never made sense to get our own facilities. We come to you and coordinate with the venue to get the best of all worlds. In general, you want enough light to see, enough space to move around comfortably, and it should be quiet enough to hear. Everything else can be adjusted to.


We serve the entire area including Chain Bridge Forest, Clarendon, Dover Crystal, Old Dominion, Olde Glebe, Riverwood, Rock Spring, Rosslyn, Stafford Albemarle Glebe, Waycroft, Woodlawn, Woodmont, and Yorktown, and the rest of Northern Virginia and the DMV. Anywhere you can think to have a fun Arlington corporate event or private party, we can provide you with options to make it happen!
