Plots for Different Size Groups

How we run our whodunits varies according to how many people they are for and which style you prefer. Some murder mystery plots can be run by just one or two professional actors, some need five or more. Styles vary according to what will work best for your group. Some are participative and provide plenty of opportunities for guests to get involved. Others are more laid back, more “dinner theatre” than “interactive”.
