This production will run March 16 – April 2, 2023.


Auditions are by appointment only and actors are invited to prepare one 2-minute monologue.

Please review the following details BEFORE calling for an audition appointment.


THE PLAY

"Ken Ludwig's clever adaptation of the Agatha Christie classic boasts all the glamour, intrigue and suspense of Dame Agatha's celebrated novel, with a healthy dose of humor to quicken the pace.

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, the passengers rely on detective Hercule Poirot to identify the murderer – in case he or she decides to strike again."

All roles are available.

Rehearsals will begin the week of February 6, 2023.
