About the Show
Director Eddie Cheek is looking for backers for his new movie, THE ZOMBIE WAS AN ALIEN, so he’s throwing a gala shindig for interested parties. Final Cut is an interactive murder mystery party where the audience members are gala attendees who will be encouraged to dress up, have fun, and talk to audience and actors alike in order to understand the full story and solve the mystery. As the evening progresses, the betrayal, affairs, Hollywood drama, and murders unfold in front of the audience, who is tasked with paying attention, asking questions, and discovering Who-Done-It!
