MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS Comes to La Comedia
The production is adapted for the stage by Tony-nominated Ken Ludwig.
Murder on the Orient Express is coming to La Comedia this month. Performances run January 15 - February 15, 2026.
Adapted for the stage by Tony-nominated Ken Ludwig, this suspenseful masterpiece from the world’s most popular mystery writer captures the spirit of Agatha Christie’s original classic with a healthy dose of comedy.
Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the Orient Express in its tracks. Shockingly, the luxurious train is one passenger fewer — an American tycoon lies dead in his compartment. With a killer in their midst, the passengers rely on detective Hercule Poirot to identify the murderer before it’s too late.
