There are predictable dinner theaters and then there's the out-of-bounds entertainment that you and your family will experience when you are in the audience for Angelo's Murder Mystery Dinner Theater. With a 13-year backlog of memorable performances, this team of actors, directors and crew have been proud to continue the tradition of being Virginia Beach's original comedy/murder mystery company. Audiences love it for many reasons. Not only do you get a chance to see the work of some of the finest actors in the area, you will also become a part of the production as the performance becomes interactive. The characters variously include audience members to help solve the mystery, often leading to amusing results. The performances are all family friendly, so make it an evening out for the whole clan.

As the two of you take a leisurely stroll from gallery to gallery on a romantic date at the Chrysler Museum of Art in Virginia Beach, you will be struck by the sheer depth and breadth of the various pieces that are presented here. The facility has attracted much attention for its incredible collections, and some of the many highlights include a Tiffany glass collection, a gallery of impressionist paintings as well as 15 different visiting exhibits.

The two of you will enjoy escaping the present and journeying to Virginia Beach's dramatic past when you plan a romantic date at the Francis Land House Historic Site. This is a 200-year-old plantation home that has been restored down to the last detail and is open for guided tours and special events. Each room in the house is decorated to reflect the furniture and other items of the period, complete with stunning antiques and reproductions that offer visitors a rare opportunity to peer into how the gentry class of the area used to live.
