Murder by the Numbers

Written and Directed by Terry Smith

Produced by Jerri Wiseman

Step into the glamour and grit of 1960s Vegas with Murder by the Numbers. Wayne Kerr has just released his thrilling new book. Join us for an unforgettable night as the celebrated author himself takes center stage, sharing the inspiration behind his gripping tale of chance, intrigue, and betrayal. But the real mystery begins when Wayne’s fans turn out to be more interested in murder than mere autographs. Is this just a clever publicity stunt, or is the story bleeding into real life? Roll the dice and find out—this is one event where the stakes couldn’t be higher. Don’t miss your chance to witness the mystery unfold!

All guests are encouraged to dress up for the mystery, if you are so inclined. Dress to the nines in your most glamourous Vegas attire.
