HOLIDAY GIFT CERTIFICATES FOR SHOWS

At this time of the year, we get a common question:

"Dear Killing Kompany,

I have a quick question. I was just wondering if you sell gift certificates to your Killing Kompany events. Is it possible to buy a generic gift certificate that can be used at any murder mystery show?"

The answer is:

"Because each restaurant has a different ticket price, you can only receive a gift certificate from that restaurant. And it's purchased from the restaurant you chose.

Information on all of our current open to the public shows can be found at our Schedule of Shows page - just click on this link, or if the link does not work, cut and paste it into your browser:

Whether it’s a dinner party, opening night, launch party, kids birthday, sweet 16, cocktail party, theme party, etc- our caterers want to help create your special day.

• Events planned anytime from January through March in the New York tri-state area.
