Who will be left standing?

"And Then There Were None" comes to Coach House Theatre

A multiple-murder mystery from the Queen of Crime!

January 26 to February 19, 2012

($12 Preview Performance, Thursday, January 26  only!)

 

"Ten little soldier boys sat down to dine, one choked his little self, and
then there were nine..."

>From the pen of the Queen of Crime, Agatha Christie, comes the chilling tale
of a group of strangers lured to an island and then murdered, one by one...
what could be better?  

And Then There Were None, by Agatha Christie, will be presented January 26
to February 19. Curtain times are Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m.,
with Sunday matinees at 2:30 p.m. Due to the high popularity of our Agatha
Christie murder mysteries, there will be an added Saturday matinee at 2:30
p.m. on February 18. Dinner or Brunch is available to all theatre patrons
prior to every performance at the Akron Woman's City Club next door. 

There will be a special $12 preview performance Thursday, Jan. 26 only, at 8
p.m. 

The official opening night is Friday, Jan. 27. 

 

Christie's murder mysteries at Coach House have become a hugely popular
Akron tradition, and our four-week run will likely sell out quickly. So
reserve your seats now!

 

Tickets are $18. The box office opens one hour before the show. Coach House
Theatre is located at 732 W. Exchange Street, in Akron, next to the Akron
Woman's City Club, and at the corner of W. Exchange and N. Portage Path.
Reservations are available online at  <http://www.coachhousetheatre.com>

 The Director

Nancy Cates, one of our two Artistic Directors, directed Coach House's hit
production of The Philadelphia Story earlier this season. In past seasons at
Coach House she has directed Deathtrap, Doubt: A Parable, Steel Magnolias,
Barrymore's Ghost, Tonight at 8:30, Oh Coward!, The Gin Game, Present
Laughter, Sleuth and Royal Coach Award winners for Best Production Hay Fever
(2006-2007), Driving Miss Daisy, (2007-2008) and Leading Ladies (2009-10).
She is also one of the two Artistic Directors of the Ohio Shakespeare
Festival, which performs each summer at Stan Hywet Hall & Gardens, as well
as periodically at Coach House and the Players Guild of Canton.

The Playwright

Plays authored by Dame Agatha Christie are longtime favorites of Coach House
audiences. In the past dozen years, the theater has staged sell-out
productions of Witness for the Prosecution, The Mousetrap, Ten Little
Indians, Murder on the Nile, A Murder is Announced, The Hollow, The
Unexpected Guest and Appointment with Death. Often referred to as the "Queen
of Crime," Christie is considered one of the most important and innovative
writers in the murder mystery/crime genre. 

 

And don't miss the rest of Coach House's fantastic 2011-12 season: 

A Moon for the Misbegotten by Eugene O'Neill, March 22-April 7
