If you're looking for a unique and unforgettable way to celebrate Oktoberfest, look no further than Riddlesbrood Touring Theater Company! One of our most memorable performances was a lively Murder Mystery Party in Baltimore, MD, set during the height of the pandemic in 2020. While many events were canceled or postponed, we were fortunate enough to bring laughter and intrigue to a spirited audience under a spacious outdoor tent at a local Baltimore restaurant and bar.

The crisp autumn air and festive Oktoberfest decorations set the perfect backdrop for our interactive murder mystery experience. Despite the challenges of the time, the event was a huge success, drawing a great crowd eager to enjoy some socially distanced entertainment. The restaurant’s outdoor setup allowed everyone to safely participate while still enjoying the full theatrical experience.

Our Oktoberfest-themed murder mystery was filled with laughs, lederhosen, and a lot of audience participation. As guests sipped on seasonal brews and sampled bratwurst and pretzels, they were drawn into a hilarious tale of mystery and mayhem involving eccentric German characters, suspicious motives, and plenty of plot twists. The interactive nature of the show meant that the audience wasn’t just watching—they were in the show, questioning suspects, searching for clues, and even joining the cast on stage. The event was a perfect example of how live entertainment can still thrive—even in uncertain times—when creativity and community come together. Our performers embraced the festive spirit with traditional Oktoberfest costumes and thick German accents, all while encouraging the audience to shout out their suspicions, cheer on their favorite characters, and solve the mystery together. It was a night full of laughter, surprises, and that classic Riddlesbrood charm that keeps fans coming back for more. This event proved that with a little flexibility and a lot of imagination, a murder mystery party in Baltimore can be a standout experience, no matter the circumstances. From the authentic Oktoberfest touches to the fully interactive format, it was an evening that guests won’t soon forget.
