What they are looking for
The Murder Mystery Co, an immersive theater company running dinner mysteries in about 20 cities, is casting its Cincinnati, Ohio troupe. Performers use acting and improv to get guests involved, with chances to branch out into other company events such as The Princess Party Co. This is a non-union job. It is paid, starting at $75 per show, with possible tips and gas reimbursement, and rehearsals are paid too. Having your own car is preferred but not required. The work runs from November 15, 2026, to December 31, 2027. The listing does not give a closing date, so it makes sense to apply before work begins. Apply through the original listing.
Castina's tip
Being at ease with an audience matters more here than a perfect monologue, so highlight any improv or event hosting experience you have. If you have a video of yourself interacting with people, send that one. Practice a big classic mystery character and try holding it while someone throws unexpected questions at you. Before you accept, ask how many shows a month Cincinnati usually gets and how far you must travel before reimbursement starts.
