MOST IMPORTANT CLUE OF ALL....AGAIN!

MEET US BETWEEN 2:00 and 4:00 on Friday, sail day, in the “Queen Mary Lounge” to pick up your mystery package. If you miss this, ask the Pursers where our next meeting is for Friday night!

You are all privileged members of the Diamond Family Mob Organization. Under this Diamond Family Umbrella there are many mob families. But the four most powerful ones will be aboard the Paradise for this very secret meeting. The Ruby, Topaz, Emerald and The Sapphire families. Your character will belong to one of these four groups. Though, individually you report to the “Boss” of your family, all of you work for the Diamonds. In other words your “GODFATHER” was Don Anthony Diamond. That was until his untimely demise two weeks before the cruise. You will all gather aboard the ship to honor him and pay your respects to the grieving widow. But more importantly you are here to vote in the new DON or DONNA! Even you can be considered! AND YOU SHOULD BE! Just prepare a KILLER campaign speech for Fridays event! Anybody and everybody can campaign! Be careful not to let the other cruise passengers know of your presence on board. In public keep to your “COVERS”. Only when you are with the “Family” should you talk business. You never know who to trust! And remember...expect the unexpected!
Again, you will find out your mysterious characters when you board. Read carefully, because you will be given a COVER character and then your real Mob Job. For instance your cover could be the owner of a Porsche Dealership, but you are really a Loan shark! Have fun with your character and use it to gather clues as to who knocked off the recently deceased. Watch your backs and remember...its only a game...its only a game...its only a game!

Whodunit Productions creates a Live Comedy Mystery aboard the ship that you become a part of ... as well as try and solve. There are times over the three days that you will be following this perplexing mystery and other times when you are free to just enjoy the cruise ... We don't want you to have to look over your shoulder for three days and nights straight!

When you board you will be given a role to play. Don't worry, if you are on the shy side you can just sit back and watch the plot unfold. But if you are not shy, then you can use your character to find out as much as you can. You see, the actors will be mixing among you and in character for the entire cruise!!!

The hilarious mystery begins to unfold on the opening night where you will first meet all of the very
M Y S T E R I O U S Characters. Then during the cruise there are mysterious notes slid under your cabin door, secret rendezvous set up for you ... all kinds of wild happenings!

On the days we are in port, nothing will happen aboard the ship, so you won't miss any important clues. But be careful.... Captain's Night is bound to be a beautiful, elegant but- a D E V I L I S H night, for sure!!

Just think...mutiny and...mayhem...gambling...all the grub you can handle...intrigue...laughter...star laden skies...and killer mystery on the High Seas!!!!

MAYHEM...... Is it Scary?

No! Whodunit's shows are COMEDIES! So don't expect a deep dark mystery. In fact for those people who just want to kick back, laugh and be entertained...you don't even have to try and solve the crime.

SUSPECTS...... Do I have to play a character?

Everyone will get a role. But it is up to you how much you become your character. If you are on the shy side, you can just sit back and be a fly on the wall, as you try to figure out Whodunit.

ACCOMPLICES...... Is everyone on the ship involved in the mystery?

No. Only our very special group. However the staff does get involved! From the Cruise Director to the Captain, they love to play when the Whodunit gang boards the ship.

ALIBI...... Are we doing the mystery the WHOLE cruise?

No. The Whodunit team has worked very closely with CARNIVAL CRUISE LINES to schedule the events so they don't conflict with the other entertainment offered aboard the ship. And there is plenty of free time for you to enjoy the cruising experience. When you board you will receive an itinerary of all the mysterious events. Most of the events take place during one or two special events before dinner and then at dinner each evening, as we all dine together. All of our activities are scheduled around the Carnival events taking place on board, so you don't have to miss anything.

RED HERRINGS...... Can I sit at Main Dining and still be involved?

Unfortunately, the itinerary and events are set around the late seating schedule. This allows us to have events during the early evening when everyone is aboard. And, since so many of the clues are also given out during the dinner hour ... we would hate for you to miss them.

THE GETAWAY...... Can children come?

It's up to you. They will have a role in our little game just like everyone else. However, there IS a lot of adult humor during the course of the show. After all, what is a mystery without a secret lover...or two? Also keep in mind that we are all seated at the late seating and this might be too late for the children.

CORPSE...... Could I be the victim?

No...then you couldn't enjoy the show!

DISGUISE...... What is the attire for the cruise?

What is the attire for the cruise? For "The Diamond Mob Family Getaway" it is your mob wear…black suits, fedoras…gold lame, boas…......or dress to KILL of course! Those who do not want to wear costumes, can just enjoy the show in your usual cruise wear.

Looking forward to meeting you on a Carnival Fun Ship Cruise
