From the playwright who brought us Baskerville comes another murderously fun ride! One of Agatha Christie’s greatest novels springs to life in this thrilling new stage adaptation. Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the Orient Express in its tracks. By morning, an American tycoon lies dead in his compartment, stabbed eight times and with his door locked from the inside. Was it the Colonel, the Countess, the American Traveler or the Russian Princess? Or perhaps it was the English Beauty, the American Assistant, the French Conductor or the Swedish Missionary. The eccentric collection of passengers become suspects and the world-famous detective Hercule Poirot must identify the murderer before he or she decides to strike again!

One Slight Hitch
By Lewis Black
July 12-28

When it comes to something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue, few brides expect the something old to be an uninvited ex-lover. ... It’s Courtney's wedding day, and her mom, Delia, is making sure that everything is perfect. The groom is perfect, the dress is perfect, and the decorations (assuming they arrive) will be perfect. Then, like in any good farce the doorbell rings. And then all hell breaks loose. So much for perfect.

Auditions: Sunday April 7, 7:00-9:00pm
Monday April 8, 7:00-9:00pm

Nobody's Perfect
By Simon Williams
August 30-September 15

Harriet is a feminist publisher, with a penchant for unsuitable men friends. Leonard is a stuttering statistician whose wife has walked out on him. Their lives become intertwined when Leonard submits his manuscript to Harriet's publishing house, Love is All Around, under the nom de plume of Myrtle Banbury. She offers Myrtle £15,000 to publish the book, Meet Me in St Albans, and in order to get his hands on the cash Leonard has to keep up the pretense of being a woman. The stage is thus set for a series of comic encounters and misunderstandings, not to mention a great evening’s entertainment.
