LAST CALL FOR SPECIAL GUEST SUSPECTS FOR HALLOWEEN SHOWS


Many requests on this: we make audience members "guest suspects" but we can also do something special for audience members who want a special "item of evidence" made for them.

It's simple, after you purchase your tickets for a show, email us a funny picture, first and last name, and one or two sentences about some fun information on the person from your group that you want to make a special guest suspect.

OUR PROPS ARE SAFE



Perhaps you have already read about the gunfight re-enactment in the Old West town of Tombstone tin which two people were hit with bullets during a show that was supposed to involve blanks. According to the town mayor, someone inspects weapons used in the gunfight skits to ensure the performers use blanks but the actor who fired the live rounds showed up late and his gun was not examined.

http://tucson.com/news/local/actor-bystander-wounded-in-tombstone-gunfight-re-enactment/article_44a2fdbc-7610-11e5-a68b-2b5c4c529948.html

This never happens in our shows because we do not use real guns that fire blanks: we use stage props blank firing replicas. They match the appearance of real guns yet are entirely safe because the barrel is plugged in compliance with Federal law. They look authentic, are full sized with working action and they weigh and feel just like the originals. And as an additional safety factor, our blank firing replicas guns come with a red dot in the end of the barrel. They cannot be converted to fire live ammo.

And finally, the only actor in our shows who actually fires the replica has over 30 years experience...but all actors are trained in gun safety.

Stage prop guns are loud so we warn you several times in the show: if you see an actor pull out a gun and you have sensitive ears - put your hands over your ears!

ARE OUR SHOWS AGE APPROPRIATE?


A question we get many times - Of course, parental discretion is always advised. Children have attended our public shows. The shows are sort of “PG 13” rated: there is no obscenity or nudity, but there are double entendres, some adult situations (like murder) and alcohol is served. A few places have age restrictions. You would have to contact the restaurant and find out what their policy is.
 
Also, if you're interested in a private event, let us know. We do create age appropriate shows.
