When Varthur McArthur, the artistic director of a failing theater in Duluth, invites his troupe of disgruntled actors and collaborators to the first read of an "immersive murder mystery dinner party," no one knew that he would be the victim. Or did they? Enter eager, determined, and untested Detective Case. After sequestering the guests into separate rooms (because, you know, social-distancing), she gets down to finding out whodunnit, uncovering secret affairs, life-long grudges, backstage drama, and a lot of musical theater song and dance. Sifting through lies and red herrings and a truly baffling murder mystery script left by the deceased, Case vows to find the truth and secure her future as a great detective.

"We are blown away by the reception A Killer Party has received since it premiered on August 5," Jason Howland said. "We initially created this musical both to employ out-of-work members of the theatrical community and and to satiate the masses until Broadway returns, and we're so excited that by working with our friends at MTI performers and creators around the country can now create their own versions of A Killer Party!"

MTI's President and CEO, Drew Cohen said, "The release of A Killer Party marks a new milestone for MTI in terms of meeting our customers' needs. This is a show created by artists for artists, and in just over three months since its debut online, we've put together a fantastic set of materials, providing groups with everything they need to produce this madcap murder mystery. We know that high schools and community theatres who are hungry for great content that can be produced safely and remotely during this public health crisis will find that A Killer Party is a perfect solution."
