Carmine's - 44th Street - NYC

The Dinner Theater Show Everyone’s Dying To Attend… At Carmine’s in Times Square!

Speakeasy, Die Softly is the most elaborate comedic immersive murder mystery ever performed by The Murder Mystery Company. During this killer show, guests will enjoy a three-course, family-style Italian feast in the newly renovated Sinatra Room at the legendary Carmine’s in Times Square.

The year is 1927, a time of flappers, mobsters, bootlegging, and countless seedy speakeasies.&nbsp; Come on into Lou Zar’s and shimmy to the live music of the club’s famous songstress, Lucy Morals, and her accompanist, Keys Yacar, or, if you prefer, play some casino games and win big money you can blow on “soda pop.” Unfortunately, the fun can’t last all night– the feds have been sniffing around! We need your help to flip the speakeasy into a “legitimate Italian restaurant” before the police raid the place. However, even amidst all these games, dames, and dons, someone had murder on their mind! You and your table team must help the detective solve the crime before the culprit escapes! But, beware… the killer could be anyone… even YOU!

Created by Scott Cramton in 2002, The Murder Mystery Co. is an experiential entertainment company exploding with popularity after being recently featured on ABC’s “Shark Tank.” Come see what all the hype is about at the legendary Carmine’s in Times Square!&nbsp;

Prepare for a memorable evening with our hosts, Kenan Thompson, Luis Guzman, and Darlene Rodriguez, at NYC’s #1-rated venue, Cipriani Wall Street!
It all begins at 6:00 p.m. with a red-carpet reception. Your seats include hors d’oeuvres, a five-hour open bar, dinner, an award ceremony, and a moving video presentation. The evening will also feature live and silent auctions with one-of-a-kind items and experiences. This event unites celebrities, supporters of the <a href="https://cristianriverafoundation.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Cristian Rivera Foundation</a>, and D.I.P.G. Warriors.
Among our guests are this year’s CRF incredible honorees, including legendary NY Yankees pitcher and commentator David Cone. He will be presented with our Heroes Award for the work he does through his namesake foundation, providing countless youth with life-changing opportunities. Our Vision of Hope Award&nbsp;goes to world-renowned neurosurgeon, Dr. David Langer&nbsp;for his groundbreaking work as chair of neurosurgery at Lenox Hill Hospital and beyond.&nbsp;Mr. Daniel O’Toole is being awarded our Philanthropic Leadership Award. A trial lawyer at Block O’Toole &amp; Murphy, he has made it his priority to support organizations that specialize in pediatric healthcare. CRF is recognizing our beloved board member, Col.

Finally, for the continued hope her journey brings us of finding a cure for D.I.P.G., our very own D.I.P.G. Warrior, Lisha Ayla, is receiving the Warrior Award.
Through table sales, auction items, program ads, sponsorships, and donations, our 17th Annual Celebrity Gala will raise money to support clinical trials at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Weill Cornell Medical College, and Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital. The foundation also provides monetary support to families impacted by D.I.P.G. and uses funds to spread awareness about this horrible disease.
The Cristian Rivera Foundation is one of the nation’s largest financial supporters of D.I.P.G. research and family support. To date, the Cristian Rivera Foundation has donated well over four million dollars ($4,000,000.00).
