Agatha Christie’s

The Unexpected Guest

Written by the Queen of Crime: Agatha Christie

Directed by Phil Cook

This murder mystery thriller, set on a foggy night in Wales, is classic Agatha Christie with a corpse cooling in the background while an ingenious display of suspects and red herrings keep the audience guessing until the very last minute.

Lost in the fog, a stranger seeks refuge in a nearby house only to find a man shot dead and his wife standing over him with a smoking gun. But the woman’s dazed confession is completely unconvincing and the unexpected guest decides to help. Remarkably, the police clues point to a man who died two years previously but as the ghosts of a past wrong begin to emerge, a tangled web of lies reveals family secrets and chilling motives, where the real murderer turns out to be the greatest mystery of all.

SHOW DATES (there will be a total of 9 performances) are: January 17, 18, 19, 20, 24, 25, 26. Evening shows are at 7:30pm on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, plus there are two Saturday matinees at 2:00pm and a SUNDAY MATINEE on January 20th, also at 2:00pm.
