Trouble in Deadwood

February 13-15, 2026

Saddle up for an evening of mystery, mischief, and mouthwatering barbecue! Step back into the Wild West, where the good folks of Deadwood are gathering for a lively celebration — until someone turns up dead! It’s up to you and your table of fellow sleuths to figure out “whodunit” before the culprit rides off into the sunset.

 

Enjoy a three-course dinner buffet catered by The Bone, featuring their signature smoked flavors and hearty fixings, as you watch the hilarious story unfold around you. This interactive theatre experience invites guests to laugh, dine, and play detective — no acting required, just a sense of adventure!
