GSC to Host Murder Mystery Dinner on Valentine’s Day

Glenville, WV – What if your wedding was not the day of your dreams, but of your nightmares? What if you leave the ceremony expecting a glorious reception, only to find out it’s at a dive bar and has been arranged by your tasteless aunt? What if your mother has gotten cheap with the greatest day of your life? What if your ex and your new husband’s ex got engaged at your reception? What if your Man of Honor was more popular than you are? And that’s all before the bodies start piling up.

Glenville State College will host “Till Death Do Us Part,” an interactive murder mystery dinner theatre performance event, on Friday, February 14 in the Mollohan Campus Community Center Ballroom. A social hour will begin at 6:00 p.m., which includes beverages and appetizers, followed by the show and dinner at 7:00 p.m. Join Detective Hutch in solving the dastardly deed and try to guess the real murderer from a group of amusing and unpleasant characters.

Attendees are encouraged to dress in black-tie attire as if they were attending a formal wedding. A prize will be awarded for the best couple dance.

Tickets are $30 for one, $55 for couples, and $200 for a reserved table, which seats seven. You may purchase tickets by calling (304) 462-6380.

A special GSC student only version of this event will take place on Wednesday, February 12 beginning at 6:00 p.m. That event will be free for GSC students, and the dinner will be part of their meal plan.
