The experience

The show centers on Michael and Lisa's wedding day, which spirals into pandemonium almost immediately. The in-laws despise each other, the minister never shows up, and the wedding planner is useless, then murder happens. Rather than watching from a seat facing a stage, you're seated at a table where the actors move through the room, perform scenes around you, and pull you into the chaos. The story happens in your space, not theirs.

Dinner arrives in courses: you start with a soup of your choice, then move through fried chicken breast, white cheddar mac-and-cheese, mashed potatoes, green beans, a roll, and white pepper gravy. Dessert is either cheesecake or a mystery option. Coffee and tea are included. Beer and wine coolers are available for an extra charge. Soft drinks: Coke, Diet Coke, Coke Zero, Sprite, Dr. Pepper, sweet tea, and unsweet tea, are also available. The whole experience runs about two hours.

The venue is wheelchair accessible, with all areas and surfaces accommodating mobility devices. Service animals are welcome, and specialized infant seats are available if you're bringing a baby. The space and transportation options meet accessibility standards, and the show suits all fitness levels.
