Dave &Buster's (3000 Oakwood Blvd., Hollywood, 954-923-5505) has always been known for its games, which range from traditional pinball to golf simulation in the Million Dollar Midway. But now these fun-lovin' guys are taking virtual reality and applying it to the stage -- by offering a three-course dinner that customers consume while watching a three-act mystery. (That's one course per act, for those keeping count.) Performances take place every Saturday at 8p.m. and cost $32.95 plus tax and gratuity. But be warned: The "D&B Mystery Players" have no qualms about involving the audience in their sleuthing, so expect a forks-on experience.
