GIFT CERTIFICATES



Is a comedy murder mystery dinner show an appropriate holiday gift? Of course it is.

And for our shows, gift certificates are available. But because each restaurant has a different ticket price, you can only receive a gift certificate from that restaurant which will be good for that restaurant only. 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:

MORE ON DECEMBER 1 SHOW AT WEST POINT CLUB

HOLIDAY MURDER MYSTERY AT WEST POINT CLUB DECEMBER 1

November 20, 2017.  The Killing Kompany, New York’s leading murder mystery dinner theatre group, makes a return appearance to the West Point Club with a brand new holiday comedy murder mystery dinner show THE SANTA SLAYINGS on Friday December 1, 2017 at 7pm.

The show will star musical comedy actors Crystin Gilmore (recently returned from Florida where she starred in Smokey Joe’s Cafe), Rori Nogee (recently returned from New Hampshire where she starred in Young Frankenstein The Musical), Leigh Akin (singer, model and actress) as well as actor Jon Avner.  So enjoy a night of comedy, dinner, dessert, dancing and mystery! Find out who and why while you enjoy the world of interactive audience participation dinner theatre, where professional actors are seated among you and at any time you may be made part of the show.  That’s right! You don’t have to know any lines or do anything other than just being yourself and have fun but watch out: “evidence” may be created in which you are made a suspect.  And for only $45 per person, you’ll not only get to dine, drink and dance but you get a mystery show where you can solve the murder and match wits with the detective. Of course, prizes will be awarded to the winner. 

THE KILLING KOMPANY is now in its 24th year, having performed their shows all over the country, at casinos, restaurants, hotels, for major corporations and charity benefits as well as family affairs. As actors, they have appeared on Broadway and on stages all over the country, in your favorite films and TV shows, on radio and in print.

Tickets at $45 per person for dinner and the show are sold exclusively by West Point Club. For more details, call (845) 446-5504. For more information on THE KILLING KOMPANY, call them at 1 888 SHOOT-EM.  They also have public shows all over the NY/NJ area and are available for private events so visit their web site at www.killingkompany.com

24 YEARS AND STILL GOING

24 years ago we had our first show, starring myself, Connie Britton, Susan Aston, Mario Mendozza and Valorie Nicore. It was in Akron, Ohio - a long story and a long car trip.

So thanks for all the birthday greetings, thanks to all of the great actors I have worked with all these years, and of course, thanks to the thousands and thousands and thousands who have attended our shows - without you, there would be no us.
