Thank you to the entire crew at Broadway Murder Mysteries. Everyone has been so wonderful, responsive and thorough, and this has, by far, been the easiest holiday party to coordinate!

Mark F.

OMG what a fabulous time we had. Our host was amazing. Couldn’t imagine a better birthday event. I say run don’t walk and book them for your next event. From beginning to end it was great, professional, and well worth every penny. I am still over the moon. 

Rebecca L.

Thank you so much for that and thank you for your level of professionalism with such an unruly bunch of people. Ontario is under a complete stay at home order due to such high covid cases and it was just what everyone needed to blow off some steam. Cannot thank you enough.
