SUA to host murder mystery dinner

Student Union Activities will be hosting their first Murder Mystery Dinner tonight. Before the event, each audience member will be given a specific role to play in order to help solve the murder mystery. The event will be interactive between the audience and the Jest Murder Mystery Co., a Kansas City-based acting troupe. The troupe has been “providing the USA with quality, professional dinner theater and murder mystery shows since 1999,” according to its Facebook page.

Kelsey Ball, culinary coordinator for SUA, thinks it would be a good event to have every year.

“I just hope that it’s a fun opportunity for students to get in the mood for Halloween and the season,” Ball said.

In addition to partaking in solving the mystery, a spaghetti dinner will also be served.

Aside from this event, SUA also has a Halloween Open House planned for Oct. 31, an event they have hosted in years past.

The Murder Mystery Dinner will be held in the Ballroom of the Kansas Union, located on level 5. The event begins at 6:30 p.m. Tickets are $3 with a KU ID and can be purchased at the SUA box office in the Kansas Union.
