The Murder Mystery Company in Los Angeles

As if you need another reason to go to the Old Spaghetti Factory, the Riverside location is currently showing A Dance With Death—but it's not as dark as it sounds. Set at a 1950s sock-hop, a death on the dance floor leads to a murder mystery show while you chow down on spagehtti and meatballs. You can trade clues with other guests and gather information to figure out who among you is responsible. It's also encouraged for guests to don poodle skirts, bobby sockks, leather jackets, or whatever '50s-era clothing you have handy—we recommend dressing as innocent as possible so nobody will think you could possibly be the suspect. At the Duarte location (1431 Buena Vista St), the Murder Mystery Co. is putting on a Midnight at the Masquerade themed murder mystery show—just in case that's more your style, though the themes at both locations are subject to change.
