The Murder of Roger Ackroyd

Roger Ackroyd goes from prime suspect to victim when murder disrupts a cozy English village, and soon the enigmatic new neighbour Hercule Poirot is pulled from retirement to untangle the web of suspects. Agatha Christie’s novel cemented her reputation as the greatest mystery writer of all time, and it now comes to the stage in a sparkling new adaptation.Warning: There is discussion of suicide in this play. If needed, you can call or text 9-8-8 for mental health and suicide prevention support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.“Posh and elegant… with a clever twist” – Houston Press“Spontaneous applause broke out numerous times in addition to the murmurs and laughter” – Dallas Star

Directed by Greg Hancock
