A luxury train. A shocking murder. Eight suspects. One legendary detective.
When the glamorous Orient Express is stalled by snow and a passenger is found murdered, the famous Hercule Poirot is called to solve the case. Agatha Christie’s classic whodunit gets a fresh, theatrical twist in this adaptation by acclaimed playwright Ken Ludwig. Known for his sharp wit and comic flair, Ludwig brings humor and high style to Christie’s tightly wound thriller—delivering an evening full of intrigue, elegance, and delightfully unexpected laughs.
