Mixed motives and hidden truths in classic Christie tale

This production has been adapted for the stage by Leslie Darbon and stars Louise Jameson (Eastenders) and Sophie Powles (Emmerdale).

The show starts at 7.30pm with a matinee on Wednesday ay 2.30pm.

A murder ‘announcement’ is in the local paper, stating time and place of a murder in Miss Blacklock’s house.

However the victim is not one of the several occupants, temporary and permanent, but an unexpected and unknown visitor.

What follows is a classic Christie puzzle of mixed motives, concealed identities, a second death and a determined Inspector grimly following the twists and turns, with Miss Marple on hand to provide the final solution – at some risk to herself – in a dramatic confrontation scene just before the final curtain.

Tickets cost £18.50 (concessions £16.50, matinee all seats £15). Call the box office on 01403 750220 or visit www.thecapitolhorsham.com.
