Murder on the Orient Express

Posted in: Theatre

Pit & Balcony Community Theatre begins their 90th Season with playwright Ken Ludwig's translation of Agatha Christie's 'Murder on the Orient Express.' Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the Orient Express in its tracks. The luxurious train is surprisingly full for the time of the year, but by the morning it is one passenger fewer. An American tycoon lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside. Isolated and with a killer in their midst, detective Hercule Poirot must identify the murderer—in case he or she decides to strike again. Showtimes are 7:30 PM for Friday & Saturday night performances and 3 PM for Sunday matinees. $20 general admission tickets available online at pitandbalconytheatre.com.
