A THEATRICAL MASTERPIECE FROM THE FIRST LADY OF CRIME
The Agatha Christie Theatre Company make their debut at the Grand Theatre with a murder mystery that will enthral and delight.
Lost in the fog on a lonely road, a stranger seeks refuge in a nearby house, only to find himself stumbling on to the scene of a murder. When the dead man’s wife confesses to the murder of her despised husband, the stranger agrees to provide her with an alibi. But who is he really protecting? And in a house full of suspects, whose are the unidentified fingerprints found at the scene?
The all-star cast is led by Emmerdale’s Susan Penhaligon. She is joined by Ben Nealon (Soldier Soldier), EastEnders favourite Dean Gaffney, Derren Nesbitt (Where Eagles Dare), BBC and MTV star Richard Blackwood and two of our most talented and versatile performers, Mark Wynter and Virginia Stride.
