About the show
“Who killed Roger Ackroyd?” The murder sends shockwaves through the tight-knit community of King’s Abbot, a drowsy village now awash with suspicion and secrecy. Not to fear — a certain mustachioed Belgian detective is on the case!
With clockwork precision, just seven actors play all the characters in this highly theatrical adaptation of Agatha Christie’s 1926 masterpiece.
Village politics, familial tensions, survival instincts, and moral conscience form the center of this investigation, a twisty tale which delves deep into the human psyche’s intricate dance with truth and deception. This brand-new adaptation of one of the greatest mystery writers of all time is a refreshing take on the classic whodunnit with a kaleidoscoping and captivating flair.
