And then there were none... by Agatha Christie is in the middle of a great run. Am I over-using the word? This is a fun show with both suspense and humor, and the cast makes the most of the opportunity. We've had one sellout, and another one coming for this Sunday. Please get your tickets soon, so you don't miss being part of this.
In the play, ten very different people have been lured to an
island retreat off the coast of Devon, invited by an enigmatic Mr. or Mrs.
Owen. A disembodied voice accuses each of an unpunished murder. Then, one by
one the guests themselves are murdered, following the rhyme of “Ten little soldier
boys went out to dine. One choked his little self, and then there were nine.”
Who is the killer? Is it Emily Brent, the very religious spinster, played by
Patricia Sherick-Gronlund? Is it Vera Claythorne, hired as Mrs. Owen’s
secretary (Bisbee High School Drama teacher Elizabeth Henley)? Or is it Sir
Lawrence Wargrave, played by Charles Feil? Who will survive until the
suspenseful final scene?
