A 360° Immersive Theatrical Experience with our plots designed especially for Amateur Sleuths with a twisted sense of humor!
Drop by to Dine, Drink, Deduce, and Die… Laughing — at Keith & Margo’s MURDER AT THE PUB — where incognito professional stage, TV and film actors surround you as imposters and where you can be part of the action, both as an investigator and as a homicide suspect!
Blackfriar Pub in Lakewood is a casual welcoming spot, with an inviting unique bar, along with windows that open up to welcome the neighborhood… intrigue, cold-blooded murder, slippery red herrings, diabolical clues, and ingenious detective work!
Enjoy an evening of delicious cuisine and despicable crime as you help solve a triple homicide, but don’t be surprised if you find yourself at the business end of a comically snarky third-degree interrogation by our hilarious Homicide Detective, ostensibly from the Dallas Police Department.
Listen In!

FAQ's:
Are there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event?
No ID is required. We do not recommend our shows for children under 14 years of age. Plots may involve adult situations or mature themes (infidelity, drug use, gambling). Humor may contain mild adult innuendo.
What are my parking options for getting to and from the event?
Free public parking is available in the parking lot right next to Blackfriar Pub.
How can I contact the organizer with any questions?
Email is stephanie.deol@thecakemediagroup.com
What's the refund policy? Is my ticket transferable?
All sales are final and nonrefundable. No exceptions. However, if you can’t make the show, you are allowed to give someone else your ticket for that date.
Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event?
No. Your name will be on the check-in list with our Mystery Host at the door. We will email you a confirmation with directions and additional information.
Is it ok if the name on my ticket doesn't match the person who attends?
Yes.
How can members of a group sit together if they reserve separately?
When reserving, you are asked if you are part of a larger group. If you are, type your group name (e.g. The Smith Party, or The Jones Party) into the space provided, and we will sit you all together.
Is it gory or scary?
Stage Blood is used, but nothing too graphic. This is not like a haunted house experience. No one is going to leap out and try to scare you.
Is the murder mystery before or after the dinner?
During. It begins the moment you park your car, and ends only as you exit the restaurant.
May I take pictures?
Yes! We encourage it… as long as you tag it (if you upload it to social media) as KEITH & MARGO’S MURDER MYSTERY TEXAS. Please also tag the location as BLACKFRIAR PUB LAKEWOOD
Directions:
5 STARS! My sister got us tickets for this event as a birthday gift to me and I had a blast!!! The mix and mingle before the main event was really neat. It got everyone loosened up and really set the mood for the night. The main event was so much more than what I even expected! I had such a good time interacting with everyone in the room. Our team at our table was awesome! We all worked together and really enjoyed each other’s company. It was so fun to see who ended up being actors that we had been visiting with earlier and didn’t even realize they were going to be part of the show! They all did an amazing job and were very convincing! The food and the wait staff were great too! All and all this was a birthday night to remember!
