Agatha Christie's AND THEN THERE WERE NONE runs through March 27th

Without a doubt, AND THEN THERE WERE NONE (formerly titled TEN LITTLE INDIANS) is Agatha Christie's most well-known work. It was first seen as a serial mystery in the Saturday Evening Post, followed by its publication in the form of a novel. Adapted to the stage, it became her first hit play in both London and New York. The story was subsequently made into a major motion picture by Twentieth Century Fox in 1945, and re-made by Hollywood again in 1966.

Eight individuals are invited to spend the weekend at a country house on an island off the coast of Devon. When the guests and the two servants are all assembled, a voice from a loudspeaker accuses each of committing a murder in the past for which he or she was never punished. All of a sudden, one of a collection of statues falls from the fireplace mantle and the first victim immediately meets his fate. With no way off the island, the suspense mounts as the statues, one by one, fall the ground, each followed by another victim dispatched in a different manner.

The novelty of the story, Agatha Christie's remarkable ability to generate unbridled suspense, and that fact that you will never guess "who done it, " have all combined to make this one of the best mysteries ever written, and as seen by its successes in print, on stage, and in film, Agatha Christie's most popular.

There is nothing like enjoying a cold winter's night with good food and a fabulous mystery....
