A murder will be committed Saturday, but it’s all in good fun.The Music and Dramatic Arts College Council is hosting a murder mystery dinner theater as a fundraiser for the college. Members of the general public will be given the opportunity to portray characters as part of a staged murder mystery, said Carly Zimmerman, MDA College Council president.Participants were able to register for the event online and were given a character information sheet describing their character’s personality and instructions on how to dress for the part. Registration is now closed.”There will be clues throughout the night, and then people will interact with each other to figure out the murder,” Zimmerman said.The event allows a maximum of 50 people to participate, and Zimmerman said the registration filled quickly.”On any given weekend, you’ll see a play or opera being put on,” Zimmerman said. “But we’ve never done an interactive thing, so we’re taking a risk with this.” Zimmerman said she hopes to see the event — which will be catered by LSU Dining — become an annual tradition.The event will be held Saturday in the MDA Building from 7 to 10 p.m. —-Contact Matthew Jacobs at [email protected].
