The Cafe Mocha Murders

Murder Mystery Comedy (5 W, 4 M)
​Despite the raging storm outside, it seems like a perfectly normal night for an employee meeting at the local coffee shop, The Bean Shack. That is until the lights go out, and someone winds up dead. In this over-the-top whodunit, it’s all about latte art, caffeine content and the imminent threat of death.

What People are Saying About The Cafe Mocha Murders
"This might be the funniest show we have ever done!" - Trailblazer Theatre Company

"In Café Mocha Murders, Deanna Strasse has crafted a theatrical, engaging, and funny murder mystery. Distinctly drawn characters. Clever dialogue (with plenty of coffee lore thrown in). And a surprising conclusion to this who-done-it. I’d love to see this staged! " - Kim E. Ruyle, playwright, New Play Exchange

"A well-constructed murder mystery with memorable characters and clever jokes that take great advantage of the unique setting. I don't even like coffee, but I feel I know so much more about it now!" - Jeremy Laroche, playwright , New Play Exchange
