Part murder mystery and part psychological thriller, the play is brimming with intrigue, sophisticated humor and surprising twists. Agatha Christie's iconic murder mystery is the world’s most successful and longest-running play.
After a local woman is murdered, the guests and staff at Monkswell Manor find themselves stranded during a snowstorm. A police detective, arriving on skis, interrogates the suspects: the newlyweds running the house; a spinster with a curious background; an architect who seems better equipped to be a chef; a retired Army major; a strange man who claims his car has overturned in a drift; and a former judge who makes life miserable for everyone. It soon becomes clear that the killer is among them, and the seven strangers grow increasingly suspicious of one another. When a second murder takes place, tensions and fears escalate.
