Marriage Can Be Murder
Date Seen: 07/11
- Good Show
Having seen Marriage Can Be Murder several years ago at The Egg and I and
thoroughly enjoying it, we were interested in seeing it again at Fitzgerald's.
The food is average, but the service excellent. Where the evening stands out,
though is in the show. We saw the show on July 9 and Mimi had us rolling from
start to finish. A very talented cast. Witty dialogue, fast rejoinders, puns,
and word play help make this a show that keeps the audience guessing, thinking,
and laughing.
In short, we loved "Marriage Can be Murder" when we saw it before and loved it
even more the second time around. The show is great. and leaves you with that
the wonderful feeling you only get when you have been laughing for nearly two
hours. The show lives up to its billing and then some. Of course, it didn't
hurt when my wife, "Chesty Big-Eyes" as she was referred to by the cast, won
Super Sleuth. This is a wonderful show.

Husband and I went to Fitzgerald's to see this because we got this and Fits of Laughter tickets for the price of only this show and it was totally worth the money, we didn't even go to the second show because we got our money's worth with this one! Having been to a similar type of show in San Antonio, we kind of thought we knew what to expect, but how did we know that we would be standing in the line and holding a conversation with two of the actors?! My husband (who is not a joiner at all) was roped into being in the funeral band and I ended up being on of the supporting actor nominee's somehow!
We had such an awesome time and I guess since it's been moved to Fitzgerald's the food has improved because we had no complaints at all! The roast beef my husband had was tender and juicy and the potatoes were crispy and well herbed, my salmon was cooked to perfection with a very tasty lemon herb sauce on top and the cheesecake was great. No complaints all around! We're going back to Vegas at Christmas time and going to see the show again since they change it every couple of months. I can't wait to see what they do for the holidays!

I really enjoyed this show! Its totally worth every penny. The actors were hysterical (although the jokes were sometimes corny). They really got the audience involved and interacted with everyone. Whoever did the sound effects was fantastic! The food was okay, the service was great. The waiters/waitresses were very on top of table service(serving, refreshing water, clearing etc).

We saw this show as our third choice at the tix4tonight booth at 4 Queens. Since we were downtown anyway we wanted to see a show downtown.
I was really not looking forward to the show. I was actually surprised at how much I enjoyed it! The hostess/lead actress was incredibly funny with the ad lib one liners. Several audience members were brought into the act, including my mother, and all seemed to be having a great time. The plot was a little shaky, but they pulled it out in the end. The murderer was sitting at our table (my husband guessed it right, but I missed the clues). This is one of those shows where you need to pay attention, mingle and take notes to really get into it.
Unfortunately, the meal was not good. The meat was fine (I had chicken, husband had steak) but potatoes and veggies were cold and dry. The cheesecake at the end was outstanding though.
Overall, if you go for the show and don't expect much from the dinner you will be pleasantly surprised. Cost at the tix4tonight booth $41.00 which included dinner - I think that's pretty reasonable.

My sister and I saw the show last night and I just wanted to say that this was the most memorable part of our entire trip! We came in not knowing what to expect and left in shock and excitement! We can't stop talking about the show and keep remembering little clues about the murders! The cast was VERY impressive, so extremely believable, and friendly!
Thanks again for the laughs, the excitement, and the memories =)

I saw the show back when it was at the Egg and I and I loved it back then. Hearing that the show moved to the Four Queens Casino, I thought I would take visiting family to see it, a decision I now regret. We could have had a better meal at McDonalds. The theater was old, decrepit, and very poorly lit. Don't waste your money on VIP seating. It was cramped, poorly appointed, and strangely at the very back of the theatre affording a poor view of much of the action. Officer Gary Colombo's (the lead actor) performance was amateur and his costume was unmistakenly gay. What was supposed to be lighthearted comical bantering with the supporting actress was mostly dry witless sarcasm played out with poorly delivered lines. The show closes with a male actor dressed as a topless drag queen prancing about. Don't take children to this show (we made the mistake). It used to be a good family show but has sadly evolved to now incorporate a lot of sleezy sexual content which detracts from the plot. Service was on par with the show - bad. Our waitress was dressed in a black biker tee shirt shirt and jeans and was unattentive. My advice - take this show off of your list of things to do in Las Vegas.

I went with a group from work to this show, actually I was kind of forced. I thought that I was going to watch a show, but after the introduction a man walked in with a gun ... and the show was on!!! I ate dinner while bodies were falling all around me and I was supposed to figure out who did it and why ... the food was all right but the show was great!!! I just heard that they were opening at the Canyon Club in the 4 Queens (Downtown Vegas) and I think that will be even better!!! It was worth the money!

It was a rip-off. The only reason we went was because they were offerig 1/2 price tickets. The cop was not very good at ad-libbing. Then, they reques
ted 17% to the TOTAL bill as gratuity. When we generously gave $5 in stead $10, we were told that was not sufficient. We don't mind paying 17% on the cost of the food; but why on god's earth would we pay 17% on the cost of the play??? This is unheard of. The dinner couldn't have been worth more than 15.00! Certainly the waiter did not contribute to the play itself. The actors are adequately compensated with the strip prices instead of a local price. You won't find me there again!

MY HUSBAND AND I WENT TO THIS SHOW FOR VALENTINE'S DAY. IT WAS OUT OF THE ORDINARY BUT SO ARE WE.
WE WERE GREATED WITH A ROSE AND CHAMPAGNE (SINCE IT WAS VALENTINE'S DAY). THE WAITER QUICKLY TOOK OUR DRINK ORDERS AFTER WE WERE SEATED. THE DINNER SELECTION WAS AWESOME! THERE WAS A CHOICE OF 8 OZ. RIBEYE STEAK, 8 OZ. SALMON, 1/2 ROASTED CHICKEN OR PASTA W/ VEGGIES. DINNER ALSO CAME WITH A SALAD AND A TASTY ROLL (W/ CREOLE SEASONING) FOLLOWED BY A GENEROUS PORTION OF CHEESECAKE FOR DESSERT. EVERY BITE WAS DELICIOUS!! THE SERVICE WAS JUST AS GOOD BECAUSE THE WAITER NEVER LET OUR DRINKS DRY UP AND PROMPTLY CLEARED THE TABLE FOR US. THAT'S ALWAYS NICE!
THE SHOW ITSELF WAS NOT WHAT I WAS EXPECTING. I WAS EXPECTING TO JUST SIT BACK AND WATCH. OH NO. IT WAS ALL ABOUT AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION. MY HUSBAND WAS EVEN CALLED TO PARTICIPATE A COUPLE TIMES! THE AUDIENCE PLAYED THE ROLES OF THE DOCTOR, PALLBEARERS, BAND AND WEEPING MOURNERS. THE JOKES WERE SOMEWHAT LAME BUT THE ACTING WAS TERRIFIC. THERE WERE PLENTY OF BREAKS DESIGNED TO MINGLE WITH THE CROWD AND FIGURE OUT WHICH PERSON WAS THE MURDERER. EVERYONE WAS A SUSPECT!
IN THE END WE WERE HAPPY TO BE FULL AND ENERTAINED. THEY TREATED US RIGHT.

what a total waste of money. the food was terrible, the restaurant, if you want to call it that is a breakfast joint,like howard johnsons. the acting was about as good as my kids third grade play, and they should be listed as rip off show of the year in las vegas.
the las vegas entertainment magazines should be ashamed by placing their ads as a las vegas show. well, that just goes to show the entertainment community can be bought.
these people should be sent back to acting school, better yet the producer should be fired and they should find a producer that might be able to salvage this catastophe, and then maybe it could go to pacoima.
don't waste your time or money.

This was really great. Although this is 2 miles off the Strip, it is well worth the trip. As a mater of fact,
it's better than most of the stuff on the strip, and much more reasonably priced. The cast was great
(the woman who played Didi is incredibly talented) and everyone who was there truly enjoyed
participating. What a wonderful surprise!

This is an excellent show to see. You are given the choice of a few dinner items to choose between ( steak, chicken, fish and I think a pasta dish), we we're all happy with the portion size and taste of it all. It is a very interactive show and lots of breaks to go outside for a cigarette and to mingle with other guests to try and figure out who the murderer might be. I have been to a few of these dinner shows before and this one is by far the best.
The only downside of this thing was, we had a party of 6 and at the end of the meal they tried to charge us 20% or so gratuity per person because we had such a "large size " group which made no sense cause all tables held roughly 10-12 people, so even if we had been 4 people in our group, we would of been seated with another 6 to 8 people to fill a table anyways. So it is true when you read other reviews on this site about finding out what your FINAL BILL will be before you go, ask if any extra charges etc. I had another couple who went after we recommended it and they had that extra fee charged straight to their credit card without being informed.
Overall is a very very good show and would still tell every person who want to see a dinner show that this is for the best of the bunch in Vegas.

Me and my husband went to this show and loved it. At the end if you guess all the murders and clues correctly then you win a trophy and I did. It was awesome. There was one of the murderers sitting right across from us eating and chatting, my husband thought he was very suspicious that we was there by himself and we found up when all of a sudden he came back from the restroom boody and dropped to the floor. Great show and DD is hilarious and so is her husband Lt.

Though the clues were a little hard to follow, I really enjoyed this murder mystery dinner! Very interactive from the moment you sit down till the murder(ers) are revealed. I figured out "who done it" as they were seated accross from me at the dinner table, but the rest of the room was sure fooled. Lots of fun, a minimal price, food was okay. Definitely something different to do in Vegas. Great cast!!!
