MURDER MYSTERY
Joe Montgomery combines many of his performance skills and talents to perform in this venue. It is basically, improvisational theatre with a plot, that includes audience involvement. He thinks clearly and creatively on his feet, no matter what the other actor (audience member) has to say. He remains in character and is sure to inject appropriate clues and information into the improvisation. He has been "murdered" twice in this performance venue. Once he was garroted with a piano wire and slung over a bathtub. At another occasion he was killed with a meat cleaver, sprawled out with a diamond necklace in his hand. Joe enjoys this venue of theatre because it is a challenge. It demands "instant cover," excellent story telling and acting skills, all while mingling with the audience convincingly while eating.
If he needs to be underhanded, lively, engaging, mesmerizing, skillful, or stimulating, Joe can make it happen.
