Panel 1

The Murder Mystery

The Murder Mystery

August 14, 15, 21, 22, 2026
Fridays at 7:00, Saturdays at 1:00

Welcome to Arbor House where the biggest question on the Forrester family’s lips is—”who will inherit the family fortune?” The answer will take them on a chase through the mansion’s parlor, solarium, game room, and more in an effort to save themselves and snatch the money. But each of these distant relatives have a secret to keep and motive for murder… and all of them think they deserve the money. But who is picking off the family members one by one? The cousins? The butler or the maid? The gardener?
That’s the mystery.
Cotton Hall’s only dinner theater of the season offers guests a meal, a mystery, and the chance to solve the case for themselves.  While we cannot accommodate all dietary restrictions there are gluten free and vegetarian options available in the drop down menu when purchasing tickets online.
Tickets are $30.

The doors will open at 6:15 for the Friday meal,
and 12:15 for the Saturday meal. No early admission.

It’s a common occurrence known to every Southerner worth their salt… feeling like Country Come to Town. This brand new helping of Georgia’s Official Folk Life Play will feature a new set of stories we ain’t told yet about nature and mayhaws, sweet tea and farming, honey suckle vines and a little baseball, too! Country Come to Town will tell those “fish out of water stories” that you can’t help but laugh at. That’s right! A completely different Swamp Gravy than in March that explores life among the gnats, peanut fields, and sunshine of Southwest Georgia. 

Tickets $22 for Individuals and $20 for Groups of 20 or More.
