A Staple of Crime Fiction!
An announcement in the local paper states the time and place when a murder is to occur in Miss Blacklock’s Victorian house. The victim is not one of the house’s several occupants, but an unexpected and unknown visitor. What follows is a classic Christie puzzle of mixed motives, concealed identities, a second death, a determined inspector grimly following the twists and turns, and Miss Marple on hand to provide the final solution at some risk to herself in a dramatic confrontation.
Your Theatre, Inc. is grateful to our 73rd Season Sponsor, Bank5, for their eighth year of strong support for the arts. Hawthorn Medical is a Sponsor of this production.
