New Clue dining experience changes the mystery each performance
Clue’s familiar suspects are joining diners at the table in “Clue: Murder on the Menu,” a new interactive murder mystery dinner running through Dec. 6, 2026, at Blume Studios in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Take a seat within the well-known Clue franchise for an all-new murder mystery dining experience that doesn’t just feature the usual suspects of Solicitor Peacock, Chef White, Miss Scarlett, Mayor Green, Professor Plum, and Colonel Mustard … the suspect lineup also includes you!
Select dates from October 9 through December 6, 2026, at Blue Studios Stage 2 in Charlotte, North Carolina, mystery solvers and dinner enjoyers can dive into the world of Clue and solve their greatest mystery yet.
What to Expect at Clue: Murder on the Menu
Step into the Black Family Tudor Mansion for an evening you’ll never forget as you mingle with iconic suspects and enjoy cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, and a three-course meal within a hidden 10th room, The Banquet Hall.
The goal: Catch the killer before dessert.
As a suspect, you’ll be able to interview and interrogate suspects between courses, solve puzzles, and even possibly get sent on a secret mission, turning the typical “dinner and a show” on its head.
Keep your eyes out for every detail, because a participating audience member could be the murderer’s accomplice.
The Menu
All of the details are thoughtfully prepared, even down to the menu, made by a top London Chef. The dishes are inspired by the classic Clue suspects, exactly as you’d expect to find within Tudor Mansion.
Guests can also enjoy specialty cocktails that draw inspiration from weapons, rooms, and suspects as well. Be sure to look closely, because you never know when or where a clue might surface.
The meal concludes with a dessert full of flavor and deception.
