Mondays are for Murder
Minot Public Library
6:00pm-8:00pm
Join us on the first Monday of the month for a totally tubular murder mystery party! This month it’s Nutcracker Nightmare: Murder at the Ballet. Nothing says “Season’s Greetings” like holiday music, Sugarplum fairies, and murder. It’s opening night for Balance Ballet Company’s production of The Nutcracker, and something seriously unbalanced is going down. The star has been killed, moments before the curtain was set to rise. Was it YOU?! Only you can solve the case, save the performance, and make sure the holiday season gets off on the right foot!
