One murder, eight suspects and a wild ride that’s about to go off the rails.
It’s the winter of 1934 and the luxurious Orient Express is travelling through the night on its way from Istanbul to London, when a snowdrift stops the train in its tracks. In the first-class carriage is Hercule Poirot, the famous Belgian detective, returning home from an 'unfortunate' murder case.
When one of his fellow passengers is found dead, with eight stab wounds to his chest, there are no footprints to be seen in the snow. Taking charge of the investigation, Poirot reaches the only possible conclusion: the killer must still be on board the train.
Cameron Rhodes (King Lear, North by Northwest) plays the inscrutable Poirot in this classic Agatha Christie whodunnit, cleverly adapted for the stage by Tony-nominated playwright Ken Ludwig (Lend Me a Tenor, Crazy for You).
Presented by Auckland Theatre Company.
