The Improv Playhouse Murder Mystery Event was perfect! The actors were very well organized and kept everyone engaged in finding out who the murderer was, which can often be difficult with a group of typically introverted engineers. I will definitely recommend improv playhouse to other groups at Cardinal Health. We had a ton of fun!
