The Trial of Agatha Christie
  • London Fringe

"My name is Aphrodite the First, and tonight you are going to help me solve a mystery." Dame Agatha Christie is the best-selling novelist of all time. Famed for her murder-mystery novels, she was a pioneer in the world of crime fiction. She has become a cultural hallmark of the quintessentially British 'cosy crime'. Her stage plays continue to run on the West End. But this notoriety does not hold her above the law. Especially in regards to her literary success - and the darker, lesser-known origins of what inspired her writing. Step into HRH Aphrodite I's 'court of public opinion' to put the Queen of Crime in the dock. Turning back to the 1940s, she'll uncover the brutal murder of a foster child that sent shockwaves through Westminster and left newspaper readers horrified - all the while producing a play that would make theatre history. 'The Trial of Agatha Christie' is an hour-long participatory show about murder, injustice and artistic inspiration. While Aphrodite examines the facts and weighs up the arguments, your job is simple: determine the verdict and change the course of history. Dame Agatha Christie: Guilty or Not Guilty? Latecomers may not be admitted. Please arrive in good time for the start time of 19:45.Under 18s are not permitted into the theatre for this performance. No re-admittance once the performance has commenced. Refunds and exchanges are not available.

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.
