PERIL IN THE ALPS to be Presented at Vertigo Theatre
PERIL IN THE ALPS features Graham Percy as Hercule Poirot, Austin Halarewich as Hastings, Tyrell Crews as Man One and more.
Vertigo Theatre will present PERIL IN THE ALPS by Steven Dietz, based in part on Agatha Christie's "Poirot Investigates". November 15 - December 14, 2025.
Bella Duveen has vanished, and Arthur Hastings can think of no one better to find his sister-in-law than his good friend Hercule Poirot - a master sleuth who has saved Bella once before. Coincidentally, Poirot has just taken on a missing persons case that seems eerily similar - are they connected? And how are these disappearances intertwined with past mysteries that have already been solved? With the suspicion of a greater scheme at play, Poirot must travel to the snow-capped Alps, where the famed Belgian detective may finally meet his match. Six actors bring to life dozens of eccentric characters and clever suspects in this diabolically funny mystery romp.
Vertigo Theatre Artistic Director Jack Grinhaus says "I love a good comedy that is also smart. Agatha Christie's brilliance, paired with Dietz's wit and sense of pacing and rhythm, makes for an enthralling evening of mystery theatre. As we are coming into the holiday season, PERIL IN THE ALPS is the perfect chestnut. Romance, wit, nostalgia, and a puzzle to be solved that comes out right in the end. Exactly what we all want this time of year."
PERIL IN THE ALPS features Graham Percy as Hercule Poirot, Austin Halarewich as Hastings, Tyrell Crews as Man One, Linda Kee as Woman One, Heidi Damayo as Woman Two, Aidan Laudersmith as Man Two.
