June 10, 2025Murder Mystery
For my parents' 50th wedding anniversary we thought it would be awesome to have a murder mystery and In Cahoots Event Entertainment absolutely made the event so much fun! Not only were they super easy to work with, but they were super nice, brought great energy to the party, and were able to engage 3 generations of family members for over an hour (not an easy job). The whole process of putting this together could not have been any easier because they did everything. I highly recommend them and would not hesitate to book them again.

May 6, 2025Great Times
These two dressed the part and were great to have hosting our Singo evening of entertainment. They were funny and even covered us when we didn't have enough prizes for all of the winners. They think of everything you might need for your event and were great at communicating prior to the event. Thank you and great job!

In Cahoots Event Entertainment will work with you to select the perfect entertainment to suit your needs.

Setup requirements
We do not require any special equipment, though an in-house PA system/microphone is recommended if you have a large venue/crowd, but we can provide a portable PA system if necessary at no additional expense to you (please just let us know in advance).
We performed murder mysteries in the narrow aisle of a train every weekend for 8 years, so we do not need much space at all! A stage is not necessary.
