Agatha Christie's
Witness for the Prosecution

May 2 - June 4, 2006

Deceptions, disguises and Christie’s brilliant plot twists make this one of theatre's greatest courtroom dramas. A soft-spoken young man befriends a wealthy widow and becomes the primary suspect when she is found dead. His fate depends on the testimony of his mysterious German wife, but whether or not she will corroborate his alibi is uncertain. Christie’s most suspenseful tale of secrets and murder keeps audiences on the edge of their seats until the play’s final seconds.

"The air in the courtroom fairly crackles with emotional electricity, until that staggering surprise." - The New York Times
