Audience members of "Mighty Muddy Murder" find themselves attending the show in such restaurants as The Hereford House, being ushered to a room which becomes a "passenger car" of a train bound for Kansas City. As a few courses of some very savory food are  served, audience members visit with roving actors, learn identities, relationships, and a very interesting story line.

Here Mary Rose Maddern (Janelle Ratzlaff) is the aging ingenue of a Shakespearean company bound for the Orpheum Theatre in Kansas City. She resents rising star Cordelia Fisk (Hilary Kelman) and is paired with Jeremy Charles Jefferson (Erik J. Pratt) who cites Shakespeare with dedication and no deficiency of ego. Secrets and revelations about the characters follow, and moreso after the murder of one of the actors. A roving reporter Ellie Cochrane arrives, adding to the investigation.

Audience members have word scrambles for clues and bribe money for actors to help in their investigation. Eventually an audience member discovers the true murderer and receives a prize. Best of all here, perhaps, along with great food and entertainment, is the enjoyment of making new friends in an atmosphere in which much fun abounds.
