BWW Reviews: Stray Dog Theatre's Excellent Production of AND THEN THERE WERE NONE

Dame Agatha Christie is considered to be one of the most successful authors of all time, with her mystery novels and short stories selling literally millions of copies. In fact, her work has been produced on stage, in films, and on television. Additionally, a lot of the basic ideas and plots have been utilized in countless mediums. But, despite this proliferation, they still remain clever and entertaining in their own right. Stray Dog Theatre's current production of AND THEN THERE WERE NONE is a prime example, combining a great cast, stylish appointments, and solid direction to provide audiences with a terrific experience that's well worth seeing, even if you've been exposed to this, or similar works, before.

BWW Recap: FOREVER Investigates the Art of Murder

Tonight's episode starts with a scene that could have come right out of an Agatha Christie novel. An opulent party at a ritzy museum. The glitter of gowns. The shimmer of champagne. Magnificent objects of art all around. The venom of a vicious old woman as she belittles the city's elite. But this is no ordinary old woman; this is Gloria Carlisle, a blue-blooded billionairess and matriarch of the most prominent family of Manhattan. So everyone, from the mayor down to the curator of the museum, is more than willing to stomach her nastiness. Except, of course, for the person who murdered Gloria on the elegant marble staircase.
