Murder on the Orient Express @ Tacoma Little Theatre (Tacoma)
Adapted by Ken Ludwig
Based on the book by Agatha Christie
Directed by Melanie Gladstone
Board the exotic and mysterious Orient Express as it takes off into the opulence and grandeur of the 1930s. Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the Orient Express in its tracks. The luxurious train is surprisingly full for the time of year, but by the morning, it is one passenger fewer. An American tycoon lies dead in his compartment, his door locked from the inside. Isolated and with a killer in their midst, the passengers rely on detective Hercule Poirot to identify the murderer β in case they decide to strike again. Join Poirot as he battles the clock to figure out βwhodunitβ in this sleek, stylish, and surprisingly comedic murder mystery.
