Mystery’s Most Wanted, a Pittsburgh-based dinner theater company, will present “It’s Murder, Charlie Brown,” beginning with a meal at 6:30 p.m. Saturday at Foggy Mountain Lodge, 117 Foggy Mountain Lane, Cook Township.
When the grown-up “Peanuts” gang reunites for a holiday, amateur psychiatrist Lucy delves deep into Charlie Brown’s psyche – and “the Christmas tree might not be the only thing that winds up dead,” the troupe says.
The audience-participation show is for those 18 and older. Fee is $45; cash bar will be available.
