Great Escape: Dinner and a 'Cruise' for $50 per Person

Looking to go on a cruise with your significant other or with friends, but don’t have the time? Pickwick & Frolic, on East 4th Street in downtown Cleveland, has the next best thing: a perfect night of fun, mystery and delicious dinner at their new Cruise Ship Killer shows.

Guests set sail upon the SS Frolic, a beautiful ship bound for drama. Entertainment comes from the ship’s creative crew and guests can eat dinner with the captain of the ship, sing karaoke with the first mate and even play bingo with a bikini-clad babe. Each of the ship’s crew members plays an important and fun role in the play, leading guests to play a tantalizing game of Whodunit. The way the story unfolds gives real-life flair to the comedic drama.

Patrons will enjoy fine cuisine in the ship’s dining hall, which will be served by a friendly staff who makes sure that patrons are well-fed as the drama of the murder-mystery occurs. Five dinner entrée options are available, and will appeal to people of all palates: vegetarian mushroom rotini, baked tilapia, chicken marsala, chipotle pasta with chicken and prime rib. All dinners are included in the cost of the ticket and include a vegetable and a side dish.

The shows take place on March 26, April 2 and April 9. All performances start at 8:30 p.m., but it’s recommended that guests arrive at least 30 minutes before show time. Tickets are $45.95 per person, plus fees, taxes and gratuity. People can buy tickets online and view show times and dates.

Parking for the event is just $2.50 at the 515 garage on Euclid Avenue and East 6th Street with any purchase at Pickwick & Frolic.
