About the Mystery Café

A small group of actors started The Mystery Café in Boston in 1986. These actors were the pioneers of the performance style now commonly referred to as interactive dinner theater (which simply means that the audience becomes part of the play). That group included Lee H. Adams, who in 1989 brought this formula back to the Twin Cities and founded The Mystery Café Minneapolis. Today, The Mystery Café remains the Twin Cities’ Original Interactive Comedy Dinner Theater.

There are two parts to The Mystery Café:
General Public Shows are held every weekend at the gorgeous Marriott West in St. Louis Park on the intersection of 169 & 394. Click here for showtimes.

Private Shows (for corporate events and private parties) can be performed at any time. There are several pre-designed shows to choose from - or a show can be custom designed specifically for your company or private party.

Hope to see you at one of our shows or hear from you about your next event!
