Adapted for the stage by Ken Ludwig, Agatha Christie’s masterful mystery, Murder on the Orient Express, is a suspenseful ride in which every passenger is a suspect—with the truth more complex and surprising than you could ever imagine. When the detestable Samuel Ratchett is found dead in his locked compartment, the world-renowned detective Hercule Poirot finds himself amidst a train full of suspects, each with their own hidden agendas and dark secrets. Trapped by a blizzard in the heart of the Balkans, Poirot must navigate a complex web of lies, alibis, and hidden connections, meticulously dissecting each passenger's story to uncover the truth behind the heinous crime.
