Whether you just met or have been married for 20 years the spark that made you say yes to a date needs to be fanned and Atlanta has plenty to offer when it comes to taking that someone special out for more than dinner and a movie. Today I want to feature one idea for impressing your significant other on Date Night. Agatha’s A Taste of Mystery has been entertaining couples and families alike for the past 26 years. Each night, a five course meal is prepared and served as two actors entertain and intrigue the audience with a comical tale of murder and mystery. The rotating cast usually performs four different shows a year and up until Thursday it was “Somewhere Over the Rainbow Someone Dies”, which as you can imagine is a take on The Wizard of Oz. What dinner and mystery is complete without audience participation As you enter the nicely finished parlor you are handed parts to be acted, sung or in some other way made a part of the show. It is a memorable night with lots of good food, great acting and an all around fun time.
