You dine, maybe you die.

World-famous food critic Richard Carlyle dies after dining at the hottest new 5-star restaurant, FATE – an establishment that offers diners an experience to face their own mortality. Did he die by eating the improperly prepared puffer fish, or was he murdered? Enter Lucia Dante, renowned detective, to solve the case. With numerous suspects that all have reasons to kill, Lucia must draw on her skills and the help of her AI colleague Isabella. She must also settle scores from her own past in order to crack the case.

This World Premiere of a new Canadian play is a delicious whodunnit of the highest order that introduces a new legend of crime solving in a fast paced and intense mystery.
