How many actors and helpers are required?
Eleven actors ten to play suspects (six women and four men, except Murder at Gooseneck Lake and the upcoming Murder in Movieland, which require five women and five men) and one to play the detective (male or female). At least six or seven helpers are also needed for tasks like food and beverage service, audience check-in, time checks, crowd control, etc. Helpers are very important to the success of the evening! They handle the audiences real world questions and allow the actors to stay in character at all times.
