Murder Mystery Dinner pays homage to Top Gun

Malika Bowling

Atlanta's Petite Violette is back again with a Top Gun themed mystery dinner.

Petite Violette

If you once enjoyed the comedy of Agatha's Murder Mystery dinner theater or had always intended to go but never made it there, there's good news! Agatha's actors and crew have now teamed up with Brookhaven restaurant, Petite Violette, for their shows on Friday and Saturday nights.

The latest show is Top Gunnerton, a mashup between two popular shows: Top Gun Maverick and the show Bridgerton. We meet our lead character in London, 1815 were one's standing in society is everything. Darlene Gunnerton is a young heiress vying to be chosen as the "Diamond", a star debutante. She must marry someone of her same stature, and although she is attracted to Maverick, his lineage is not a match. All this ensues while she is competing against cutthroat competition.

What is it like to attend a Murder Mystery Dinner Theater at Petite Violette?

The restaurant is quite large with a dining area in front a special area in the back for the dinner theater. Along with the entertainment you will also be treated to a four-course meal. Appetizers are serve yourself as soon as you are seated. Then you'll get a salad and choice of entree: vegetarian, fish, or steak options are all on the menu.

Guests are asked to arrive 15 to 30 minutes ahead of start time. Audience members can choose to play a part in the show or not. Two actors will show guests to their table and at that time they will be given the option to take part in the play. Parts can range from playing a character in the show, complete with costumes, or a smaller part in a group with many other guests.

Shows are themed for adults and I'd recommend age 13 or older. The cost per person is $75, plus fees. Reservations must be made online at http://www.petitevioletterestaurant.com/mystery-dinner-theater, and no refunds can be given. Actors are happy to stop and post with guests after the show!

Dinner and a Diva: Le nozze di Figaro

Join us and the singers from Capitol City Opera Company on Tuesday, October 18th and Thursday, October 20th for Dinner and a Diva: a night of gourmet food and wonderful performances from Wolfgang Mozart’s Le nozze di Figaro. Your dinner includes: hors d’ oeuvres, salad, choice of two entrees, dessert, coffee/tea, and two glasses of wine, for $75 per person (plus taxes and fees). Hors d’oeuvres and a cash bar open at 6:15 p.m., and the dinner and show start promptly at 7:00 p.m.

“Le nozze di Figaro takes place in the palace of the Count Almaviva, near Seville. Susanna, the Countess Almaviva’s chamber maid, and Figaro, the Count’s personal valet, are preparing for their wedding.But their marriage could be spoiled by the advances of the Count who is determined to seduce the bride-to-be. With the help of the Countess, who has been neglected by her philandering husband, Figaro and Susanna must use all their imagination to outsmart Almaviva, avoid the traps laid by Marcellina, Bartolo and Basilio, and take advantage of Cherubino’s awkward attempts at romance. Punctuated by a series of improbable events, which evolve into touching moments of melancholy, the Day of Madness will see each mask fall one by one, revealing the true nature of the wearer’s heart.”
