Welcome to your Friday ATOM Las Vegas / A Touch of Mystery history update ....
From 2000 - 2002 we continued to perform our mysteries for Corporate
events and Casinos in Las Vegas. In 2002, A Touch of Mystery was hired
by Royal Caribbean Cruises to install 7 stories on their Vision &
Radiance class ships. So, I got very busy and wrote 1-2 new stories a
month.
Thus, MYSTERY ON THE HIGH SEAS (aka I ONLY HAVE EYES FOR
YOU), THE FAMILY REUNION, LETHAL LIBATIONS, MARATHON MADNESS, DEATH BY
CHOCOLATE, RUYB'S RIDDLE, & DEAD AGAIN were created, and ran from
2002 - 2004.
Be on the lookout for our next history installment. Have a Mysterious weekend!

Welcome to your next installment of the history of ATOM Las Vegas / A Touch of Mystery ...
Between 1993 &
1999, A Touch of Mystery continued to perform for Corporate events and
Dinner Theatres in Harrisburg, PA and Sacramento onboard the Delta
Queen Steamboat. In 1999 I moved to Las Vegas to perform in production
shows. While there, our logo got a fresh new look (see below) and we
began performing for Corporations, private parties, fundraisers and
Casinos! Our first outing with a casino was Circus Circus for their VIP
event. It was called THE $25,000 Murder Mystery. There were 650 guests
(10 teams) and only 1 team guessed the right answer and won $25,000!
The show was ALL'S FAIR IN LOVE & MUSIC and it was a night to
remember. This was the start of a whole new chapter for A Touch of
Mystery!
Be on the lookout for our next Mysterious installment!

Here is the next installment of the history of ATOM Las Vegas / A Touch of Mystery:
In 1993 I moved to New York to pursue my theatre / acting career. I
immediately landed roles in Summer Stock and a performing gig on
American Hawaii Cruises in Hawaii.
Toward the end of 1993, I moved to Harrisburg, PA where I continued to
perform and started booking the murder mysteries for Corporate Events as
well as on board The Pride of The Susquehanna Dinner Cruise.
It was at this time that I resurrected ALL'S FAIR IN LOVE & MUSIC -
my 2nd musical murder mystery with characters such as Vinnie Vegas and
the Vinnettes, The DIVA & Troy Tritone.
While in
Harrisburg, I wrote THE REUNION and we performed it for the first time
for Merck Pharmaceuticals. We had a lot of fun with that show! It was
done for Halloween and I wrote several of their drugs in to the story.
Stay tuned for the next installment and have a Mysterious weekend!
Here's your Friday update on the history of A Touch of Mystery:
From 1986-1990, A Touch of Mystery performed our mysteries for private
parties & fundraisers in Los Angeles. In 1990 I moved to the Bay
Area where we began performing for special
events at high end apartment communities. In 1992, we began performing
on The River City Queen (one of Sacramento's Dinner Cruises) with a
weekly show as well as at Lou LaBonte's Dinner Theater. This is where
MYSTERY AT THE EARTHQUAKE SALOON was born!
Stay tuned for the next installment and have a mysterious weekend!
In 1986 THE CATERED AFFAIR made it's premiere. It was performed at a private party in Beverly Hills and the guests didn't know they were attending a murder mystery. The characters were part of a catering service and one of the scenes called for Patti Perkie & Carla O'Day to fight over a gentleman that came to the bar to order a drink.
The scene started and the gentleman interrupted the ladies arguing over him by saying "That's ok, I really don't want a drink anyway." He walked away from the bar and went directly over to the host of the party and inquired; "Where in the word did you find these people?!"
When our lead character, Mrs. Stefano came running down the stairs screaming that her husband was dead in the bedroom, guests began screaming; "Who's dead, who's dead? and CALL 911!"
Once the Inspector took over and started the investigation, the guests began laughing for the next hour as they solved the mystery!
