Centre hosts murder mystery dinner theater "Pandora's Box"

After the early-bird offer ends, tickets are $38 each, two for $72, or a table of eight for $280 ($35 each).
Gaines said that the doors open at 6 p.m. and hors d'oeuvres are served at 6:30 p.m. Tickets will not be available at the door and must be purchased in advance.
The dinner menu includes:
o Marsala steak medallions
o Apple Bourbon Chicken
