Pandemonium at the Poolside
Hosted this at our local swimming pool. Kids aged 11-16 attended. They had a great time. Will definitely try another!

Best Work Party Event Ever
Our team is still raving about the fun they had. I received a lot of credit for throwing the BEST PARTY EVER, although MMP deserves all of the credit. The characters were a blast and everyone really got into the game. Our pre-party communication really got everyone excited to come in costume and play out their characters. We will be talking about this party for a long time. Everyone is already asking when the next one is and they are taking a survey to pick the next theme

Great pool party!
Everyone had a great time, getting into character was made easy by the self-explanatory materials. The only downfall was that there was so much reading required for the host. Truly a great time was had by all. Thank you for making this creative entertainment so easy to carry out. We had dramatic players as well as more reserved personalities and the varied characters accommodated everyone.
