"Thank you for making our annual holiday party the best we ever had! You were on target with your humor, your team was fabulous, and with you incorporating us into your program made it so much more fun! Actually, it was a riot and you got us to a "T" in your dialogue. It was truly an amazing and spectacular time and we are still laughing." - LaVerne Robinson, UNIVERSAL STUDIOS HOME ENTERTAINMENT"Wow! You can not believe what a great wedding reception! Eric came to our little town in Kettering, Ohio and became an instant hit.
The murder was to be a surprise to everyone including the bride and groom. Eric had just a little information about a few of people at the wedding.
He then learned (as a secret guest) many names and informative information from the other guests. He used that information and "on the spot" had a double murder and a theft. There was constant laughter and absolutely no profanity.
I don't believe anyone will ever forget this wedding reception. We appreciated all the professionalism.
Thanks so much, Eric."- Marilyn Swigart, Kettering , Ohio
"Eric and his amazingly talented team made our
party an absolute success! Its rare that you
are actually entertained at a party, besides a band,
and we all laughed so hard and really enjoyed
ourselves. I had many phonecalls the day after
praising Sharpo.com for the completely unique party.
Hosting a party for people in the entertainment
industry and doing something original can be a
daunting task. Everyone was motivated and included in
the plot. We would definitely hire Sharpo.com again.
Thank you for being part of our very memorable party" -
Eryn Krueger and Mike Mekash-Makeup artists for film
and television
"What a fun evening! As the chairman for our annual fund raiser, I
received multiple comments about the murder mystery evening. Everyone
had a wonderful time. Your ability to work the crowd and attention to
detail was quite amazing. Several comments were specific about how well
you picked up on information during a casual conversation and then later
used it during the mystery. The evening was full of fun and laughter
and we can't wait to do it again! Thank you so much." -K. Scaffidi, RN
Association of periOperative Room Nurses, Central San Joaquin Valley
"Eric- Thank you so much for making our benefit party a HUGE success! You guys far surpassed anything we expected. Not only did we get a murder
mystery, but a comedy show as well. Your team did a great job of picking up
on small things the crowd said & using them in the mystery. Everyone I've
talked to was amazed at how well you guys worked the crowd & kept an
audience of 150 very interested. Nice work!" Nicole Gallego Swanson Group
Inc. 'Operation Christmas'
"Eric~ Thanks to the whole Sharpo team for putting on a fantastic show for us at Camp Pendleton! We all had a great time and you had the Marines and spouses laughing all night. I appreciate your attention to detail, including everyone in the show and especially working the whole room (with a crowd of nearly 300 that's some feat!). Also, your sentiments to the military were very much appreciated...thank you for making the evening perfect!" - Susan Rocco, CAMP PENDLETON, USMC
"On behalf of everyone at Jeffrey/Scott Advertising, thank you for a
fantastic performance at our holiday party. You and you cast exceeded our
already high expectations, and we're already getting staff requests to have you
guys back for upcoming events. Please pass along how impressed we all were to
the rest of your cast. Thanks Again" - Kerry Sabbatini - JS ADVERTISING
"Inviting Sharpo to conduct a team building murder mystery at our annual
retreat seemed like a gamble, initially. Well...it was one of the best
retreats we've ever had! Eric is brilliant! He included everyone in
the event; how he memorized everyone's names so quickly was the biggest
mystery!" As my staff concentrated on putting the clues together,
Sharpo provided ongoing entertainment which kept everyone guessing and
laughing. Everyone said that it's going to be hard to top next year.
Thank you Sharpo for such a professional and wonderful fun-filled team
building event! I will recommend you to every organization looking for
team building and/or entertainment." Dr. Deborah Daiek - SCHOOLCRAFT COLLEGE
"Eric, Glad that you and your actors had such a good time, because we sure did. You did a masterful job. All of the feedback from our guests was, to say the least,positive. Beyond your work, it was great how you fit in so well with everyone...just like one of the gang. I shared with you that we had attended murder mystery dinners twice before. They were performed by local talent (using that word advisedly). Both evenings were hokey and not at all entertaining. They were in sharp contrast with your presentation/performance. I think my son Scott' summation of your show was the most astute. he said, 'Left in the wrong hands, that could have been a very long evening for everyone.' Having experienced two such long nights previously, we were able to tell him just how right he was. Being redundant, we are delighted with our decision to select you for Pru's birthday celebration, and would not hesitate to recommend you to others. Wishing you the best in the future, Steve Wolf, Belleville, IL"
"Thank you for making our Holiday party such a memorable and fun event!
Our office has not stopped talking about it since then! I don't think we
have laughed so hard at any of our events ... we are a tough crowd being a
group of salespeople, and you had us all rolling with laughter all night
long! I was very impressed with your team, your professionalism, and your
humorous and pleasant nature. Thank you, thank you, thank you ... We will
definitely be using you again in the future!" - Lori Shaffer, CARSON KOLB HEALTHCARE GROUP
"We have a large event (approx. 360 people) to put on and it was getting hard to keep everyone entertained year after year doing the same old dinner/dancing routine. The Murder Mystery event was a fabulous addition! Everyone was involved and having a blast PLUS I have never laughed so hard in my life. Wonderful job and look forward to using Sharpo again for our future events." - Rita A. Nyulassey - WELLS FARGO CARD SERVICES
"Dear Sharpo,
It is hard to pick a favorite performer from our Murder Mystery that we
hired Sharpo to perform for us. You all were fabulous! Everyone was
amazed at how good you were with names and how quick witted you were on
applying look-a-like names to our Team Members...We never realized that
we had Johnny Depp, Matlock, Groucho Marx and Dustin Hoffman in our
group, but you were right, we all saw the resemblance once you called
them out!
You did a great job of keeping everyone involved and I think our sides
all hurt from laughing so hard! Thank you so much for making this
evening one I know all in our group will remember!" - Robin Hought,
WELLS FARGO FOUNDATION
Dear Eric,
I have been inundated with emails and calls from people who were at our
New Year's Eve murder mystery party. Everyone had a fabulous time.
Your quick wit and razor sharp interactions with our guests were
absolutely hysterical. Everyone was amazed by how you remembered not only
names, but professions as well. It was a fantastic evening enjoyed by
all. Thanks again." - Donna Courtney, TEMPLE B'NAI SHALOM
"Just had a party for my husband's big
birthday and used Eric and his gang. Couldn't say enough great things
about this company. They entertained us straight for over 3 hours and
everyone had smiles on their faces all the time. We laughed deeply and
were amazed by Eric's ability to retain information about everyone
making it more enjoyable for the guests. I would recommend them highly.
It may be your best party ever. It was definitely one of mine. Thanks
again for making it an occasion we will never forget."- Victoria Davis,
Bell Canyon, CA
"Our little town of Willcox, AZ is a wonderful place with lots of fresh air,
tranquility and quiet evenings.
There are only a few big events during the year and each of these, while
attracting a lot of outside guest only appeal to a certain number of Willcox
natives. Sharpo's performance at our recent Mystery Dinner Theater appealed
to everyone who attended. The audience had so much fun and so did I. I
have received so many compliments and thank yous from people who attended
that I cannot count them. The news spreads fast here as well and those who
missed the performance are wishing they hadn't. Everyone hopes this will be
an annual event. Thank you Sharpo for your professional, humorous, mysterious and super fun
evening! Sincerely, Peggy Judd" - Vice-chairman,
CITY OF WILLCOX, AZ Parks and Recreation Commission
"What an absolutely fantastic time! From the time the party started until it ended, you and your talented performers kept all of our party goers in stitches. The best was that all the guests had no idea who was a performer and who was a guest, as was evident in the crazy conclusions people made about 'who dunnit'! Eric, you are so talented. Your pre-party mingling, to get great information about the guests ahead of time, was perfect. No one suspected that's what you were doing. Sharpo made my mother's 70th Birthday party such a successful event and an incredible lasting memory for all. Thank you for making her (and everyone) so happy!" -
Renée K. Belgarde-Linder
"Eric, I want to tell you what a great job you and your team did! The way
you incorporated the group in the fun events of the evening was brilliant.
I know how hard it is to get "bean counters" to come out of their shell and
you did a great job in making everything so much fun. So Eric, thank you
again for a GREAT JOB! You and
your crew are amazing!" - Tammy Westcott, AMGEN
"Everyone is still talking about what a great evening our Murder Mystery dinner was! We had so much fun! The team you sent to us was superb and Duffy was on cue with his comments and comebacks! What a gifted team you have. I am being asked when we are doing the next dinner so they can be sure to sign up and bring their friends! We will be calling again!" - Christine Kuhbander, St. LOUIS DE MONTFORT CHURCH
"Hi Eric,
Thanks again for an incredible evening. Your Murder Mystery event far exceeded everyone's expectations. I was a little nervous about planning this event since I had never been to a Murder Mystery dinner. I had no idea what to expect. It was a hundred times better than I could have asked for!! The staff members @ BCS are still talking about this evening and probably will for years to come. That is certainly a testament to the outstanding job that you and your cast members did. I can't tell you how many times I heard after the party "So, how are you going to top that dinner?". Right now, I'm not sure it's possible. Everyone at the party laughed so hard their faces hurt. Thanks for the long lasting memories." - Darcy Cramer, BASIC CHEMICAL SOLUTIONS
"Eric and Nora,
Thanks again for the Murder Mystery you did for our Human Resources staff at Tucson Medical Center. I can’t begin to tell you how much everyone enjoyed it. The staff at TMC have been through a very difficult year and are somewhat apprehensive of organization-wide meetings. So they were naturally wary of this meeting. However, I have never seen so much laughter, enjoyment and participation from the group – clearly they loved it! Eric, your ability to roll with the punches is amazing! Your comebacks had us all laughing! You have an amazing ability to remember names, facts and especially pull everyone into the event. Nora, my staff is just sad that you aren’t really going to be an employee here! You fit so naturally with the group that they asked if I’d hire you anyway! Thanks again for everything! We will most definitely be calling you again!!!" - Rebecca Armacost, TMC HEALTHCARE
"Thank you guys for making my birthday so special! I had never been to
a Murder Mystery party before so I had no idea what to expect. It was
a BLAST!!! Beyond my expectations! Your team of actors were so good
and very funny. Thanks again for a great time!" - Jackie Brann, Redondo Beach
"Eric, I saw your performance at the Sidecar in Ventura,Ca. I thought you and your cast were great! Your quick humor, improv, and card tricks were hilarious. Thanks for all the family fun. We'll look forward to seeing you all again." - Tim Brooks, Ventura,Ca.
"Dear Eric and Nora,
Thank you for providing us with murderous entertainment at our Black & White Ball
last Saturday. Work parties generally occasion stiffness on the part of employees that are wary of being evaluated on their social skills. Eric was able to improvise and fit in details that had people blushing, hiding and rolling on the floor laughing. Being able to plug into the wit of the audience (including the suits) made for a good time. We all loosened up and everyone relaxed and enjoyed the evening.
Thanks~"

"Dearest Nora and Eric!
You have outdone even my expectations! The evening was amazing. You grabbed our attention, drew everyone into the mystery, and held on to us for 3 solid hours!Our guests, and especially our guest of honor, laughed themselves to tears!
You are both terrific and I cannot think or a better way to spend a birthday evening, nor can I thank you both enough...
I hope we have the pleasure of experiencing your unique talents again." - Dr.

"Eric: On behalf of the President's Office at the University of Notre Dame, I wish
to thank you for helping make our 2006 Officers Group and Deans retreat a
huge success. The feedback from the group was amazing, and it capped off a
very busy and productive week with team building and laughter -- a perfect
combination. I would recommend Sharpo Productions without reservation and
with full enthusiasm to any group that is seeking a highly professional,
well-prepared presentation.
Thank you again for taking the time to personalize the session. You worked
well with everyone from the President of the University to the Vice
President for Investments. By the end of the evening, you had engaged
everyone, and regardless of personality, everyone felt comfortable. I was
amazed (and so were others) with the way that you wove group members into
the mystery dinner. This will make next year's retreat a challenge to top
since expectations will be very high. It is a good challenge to have.
With gratitude and best wishes, Frances." - Dr. Frances L. Shavers - Office Of The President, UNIVERSITY NOTRE DAME
"What a wonderful experience! Detective Sharpo was on the case with energy and humor that delighted my guests and allowed me the luxury of enjoying my own party. Sharpo is simply the Sherlock Holmes of partygivers everywhere." - Susan Grey, Attorney At Law
"Dear Eric,
I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful evening you set up for our company dinner.
“What an incredible Night!!” “I laughed until I cried!!”
“The best Company Dinner Ever!” “I’ll never forget this night!!’
These were just a couple remarks I received after our company dinner that included the extraordinary talents of Sharpo Entertainment Productions.
The evening was non-stop hilarity and enjoyment that few of us had ever experienced before and it happened in just the 2 short hours of our dinner.
I was cautious because we had an international group including visitors from as far away as Germany and Japan, and yet everyone was thrilled and enjoyed every minute of the entertainment. Even my boss, who is sometimes stuffy about things like this, told me he had a wonderful time and was very impressed with the whole evening.
I hadn’t seen Sharpo and his actors in action before and was so thoroughly surprised how pleasurable the evening was and how personal they made it by using our props and information I had given them about our company.
I will be telling everyone I know about the great event and to use them to make your personal or corporate event the spectacular night it should be.
Thanks again for a wonderful night of entertainment and laughter.
Regards,
Pete Betzelos" -

"Sharpo! Entertainment Productions is a hit! We had a diverse group in
from all around the country who were not familiar with each other. We
were looking for an event that was unique, fun but would also allow the
team to mingle, work together in teams and get to know each other
better. What luck that we found Sharpo's web site - it was the perfect
event! From just one page of personalized information - Sharpo was able to
design a completely personalized murder mystery that included
information about the team and industry lingo - it was a crack up! The team had
a blast trying to decipher the clues and everybody ended up with a
different theory. Everybody had a great time and we would definitely use
Sharpo's team in the future and recommend them to anybody! Thanks again Eric - you guys are great!!!" - Teresa Marie Howes, JENNY CRAIG INC.
"Dear Eric,
We just wanted to thank you for making Debi's party a huge success. You and your fellow actors did an outstanding job. Everyone in attendance was thoroughly entertained, and amazed at your memory to recall facts and names about people who you had just met. The murder mystery show was terrific. We are still receiving thank you's from people who were at the party letting us know what a great time they had and what a great job you did. Thanks again for the awesome evening! You guys made my wife's 50th birthday one she will always remember. Sincerely, Bob Rosenblum".
"Hi Eric! I wanted to let you
know again how wonderful the Murder Mystery at the Improv Club was! I
couldn't have asked for anything better. You picked on exactly the right people! It was one of those events that everyone was talking about the next day. Thanks to you and your group for a wonderful event!" - Diana L. Kinunen, CAL POLY FOUNDATION
"Thanks so much for the fabulous murder mystery event you recently hosted for our IM staff. You and your staff did a wonderful job of drawing people out and ensuring all staff members became engaged in solving the mystery. The team had a great time. As a team building event it was a great way to have fun, get to know each other, and spend time "problem solving" as teams. Thanks again." - Kasey Quigley, BOC
"We give Sharpo rave reviews. Our LA Administrative Team Build was a
Bulls eye! We interacted, laughed, hypothesized. The game show
starter became very competitive and fun so the murder mystery was totally unexpected. There was always another twist to the plot!" - Susan Roys, TARGET STORES
"
Dear Eric,
Thank you so much for such a wonderful evening. We enjoyed your entertainers so much. Every single one of them was just amazing. Their personalities were perfect. We would love to use you again, and I will most definitely tell anyone I know to use you for the future.
Thank you again so much, we had a wonderful time." - Victoria Pacey - San Marcos, CA
Who said LAUGHTERS do not go with MURDER? Call Sharpo In, and you have hours of intrigue, murder and laughters. Thank you Eric and your wonderful casts for putting together an event for us to remember as we celebrate our 20th anniversary and a special 45th birthday. We got a lot of phone calls asking about the details of your company the days after the event. Thank you again and enjoy your new family addition. " - Jeannie and Rod Butterfield
"
Eric,
Holy Guacamole! My wife was totally surprised by the birthday
party, and the Murder Mystery was the proverbial icing on the cake. What
a great performance by your cast. They were awesome; our mystery
coordinator kept the party moving; the detective was spectacular at
sweating the truth from our guests; the blonde was a total bombshell; the
security guard was great in character, and the gallery curator
wooed the women in attendance. The experience was top notch, five star,
two thumbs up,...you get the idea.
A special thanks to you Eric for helping bring this special
event together. If you'd like to see the pictures from the party, go to
www.ccimage.com and look in the Gallery, under Kathy's Murder Mystery.
Best regards" - Tim Covington, Mission Viejo, Ca.
"Dear Eric and the rest of the Sharpo crew, Thank you for putting on such an amazing murder mystery event. We could have not asked for a better ice breaker for all our wedding guests. You far exceeded our our expectations. Everyone loved the show and continued to rave about it. Thank you for giving us so many cool and unique memories that will be cherished for a lifetime. The Drucker home was overflowing with laughter and smiles and a good time was had by all. We are so very lucky to have you share in our special day with us. We wish you nothing but the best!! We hope to see you again." - Scott and Toccara Chrisman
"Eric, you are an amazing performer - charming, witty, professional,
and
very sharp. I couldn't believe how you remembered every person's name
in
our group that you met that evening! Your ability to
capture
information while you were visiting with them and then incorporate that
info into the show made it so enjoyable for me as the planner (because
I
wasn't expecting those improv moments) and resulted in everyone else
feeling involved.
Our CFO noticed that everything you said was positive, and really
appreciated that aspect of your performance. You weren't poking fun at
anyone in a negative way, and it was obvious that you could sense the
less
outgoing people of our group as you didn't pressure them. I think
those
subtleties can make or break this type of interactive show...
Eric, your performance was unforgettable, and consequently your Murder
Mystery was the highlight of our weekend (as it was meant to be).
Thank you!" - Susie Lancaster, CYCLADES CORPORATION
"The murder mystery evening you hosted for us in San
Francisco was a real
hit! The way you took our input and weaved a story
of suspense and
mystery was very imaginative and certainly helped to
relieve the stress
from a full day of meetings. Everyone was talking
about the evening
activity the next day. Well done and thank you!!" - Frank Hernandez, BRITISH PETROLEUM
"Eric;
You stole the show and made our celebration party an event to remember. We heard from many people that it was the best office party they ever attended. Your wit is amazing, we were all aching with laughter til our faces hurt. Thank you again, you did a great job!" -
Tom, Robin, Debbie and Nancy, NORTHRIDGE INSURANCE AGENCY>
"Dear Eric, I wanted to let you know that our evening at Murder Mystery Evening was excellent. All of us came into work on Monday still pumped up about the whole experience. Thank you for providing such a fun filled evening. We're looking forward to your next Murder Mystery Evening so we can do it all again." - Mike Bridges, PRINT STATION, ALt Spgs, FL.
"Hi Eric,
I just want to write to let you know what a fun time our little group had. The Murder Mystery was great but to be honest the best part was the warmth you and your fellow Players created within the context of the Show. The Cocktail Hour worked like a jewel to relax people and create a camaraderie among the "guests." The improvisation of both Players and Guests made it difficult to distinguish the difference. The Audience was as interesting and funny as the Players. I personally laughed so much that it was actually difficult to eat the delicious dinner. Haha it was tough eating while someone was being murdered behind me and a dead body was keeping us company through the evening.
I am not sure who was having a better time, the Players or the Audience. Of course the Detective seemed to bring out the most funny, intelligent, incriminating, statements from the Audience. Our group ranged in age from early 60s to 80s and we continue to talk about it, and laughing as we recount the evening. As one lady said "I can't believe I said......". We all can't wait to go again. The diversity of ages, dress, backgrounds of the Audience and Players added to the Mystery.
Congrats again on a night we will be remembering and laughing about for a long time to come. Please let us know when the next show will be starting as we are all certainly looking forward to it. Thanks again." - Phyllis Kuhr,
Ya Ya Girls, Altamonte Springs, Florida
"Hi Eric, Just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed your performance at the Hilton in Springfield, Virginia -4/26! You were awesome & people still talk about you. If you ever perform
