Thursday - September 19th, Murder Mystery
Theater
Thursday evening, we walked across the
street to the Mobile Carnival Museum. We
enjoyed dinner along with the Improv Murder
Mystery Theatre players. The players
interacted with our group while putting on
�Next of Kin.� George Kaiser won a bottle
of wine for correctly guessing Big Daddy
Sugarbaker and his nurse as the murderers.
Afterwards, we toured the museum. The first
Mardi Gras celebrations in North America
were held in Mobile, Alabama. On display in
the museum were elegant gowns and costumes
worn by Mobile�s Mardi Gras kings and
queens. What a beautiful display of
pageantry! We had a fantastic time!
