Ludwig’s 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 eight
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.</p>

POIROT<span> </span><em

mid-40’s to late 50’s, French/Belgian accent)</em>:
Meticulous and exacting, Poirot is a keen observer of detail
and an astute judge of character. He is moral and
intellectual, with a strong sense of right and wrong that
guides him even when he doesn’t follow the law. He’s also
somewhat fussy and vain, and enjoys creature comforts.</li>

BOUC<span> </span><em
style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; outline: 0px;">(M,
30+, French)</em>: A young or middle-aged man of good
humor, Monsieur Bouc is an old friend of Poirot’s and is a
director of the Compagnie Internationale des Wagon-Lits which
operates the Orient Express. He is mildly impressed with his
own importance on the train, but not in an arrogant way. He
appears removed from the crime, often acting as Poirot’s
sounding board, much like Captain Hastings in the Christie
novels. (Think “a French Dr. Watson.”)</li>

style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; outline: 0px;">(M,
middle-age, American accent)</em>: An American businessman
and the play’s murder victim, Ratchett is brusque and
unforgiving, with a threatening demeanor and a whiplash of a
voice. He’s made plenty of enemies… almost everyone has wished
him dead. Note: The actor who is cast will double with
Colonel Arbuthnot (described below) and must display two
distinct characters.</li>

style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; outline: 0px;">(M,

handsome and very matter of fact. He’s hopelessly in love with
Mary Debenham. Note: The actor who is cast will double with
Samuel Ratchett (described above) and must display two
distinct characters.</li>
<li

ELÉNA ANDRENYI<span> </span><em
style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; outline: 0px;">(F,
Early 20’s, Hungarian)</em>: Brilliantly beautiful and
always dressed to the nines in furs and diamonds. Christie
describes her as “timid and charming…exotic and beautiful.”
Note: In the novel and films, the Countess is accompanied by
her husband, the Count. The Count does not exist in this
adaptation, and Ludwig’s Countess character is somewhat of an
amalgamation of the two. She is also a trained physician
which serves to eliminate yet another Christie character (the
Doctor).</li>

late 20’s early 30’s, R.P./standard English)</em>: An
English beauty in her late twenties, Mary bears a certain
sadness in her eyes. When she first appears, she is very
anxious.</li>

DRAGOMIROFF<span> </span><em
style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; outline: 0px;">(F,
60+, Russian)</em>: A Russian princess, now in her
seventies, described as entering her compartment “like a
galleon in full sail.” Expensively dressed and handsomely
bejeweled. Described by Christie as “one of the ugliest old
ladies Poirot had ever seen. It was an ugliness of
distinction – it fascinated rather than repelled.” Speaks in
rather autocratic tones to pretty much everyone, especially
her lady’s maid.</li>

style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; outline: 0px;">(M,
any age, French)</em>: Professional in demeanor, he is
knowledgeable and a bit overconfident, but not arrogant. He
has a quiet, almost grave sense of humor. He’s seen a lot in
his years on the Orient Express, and he knows his way around
the train. <span> </span><em

40+, any American accent)</em>: An outspoken, entitled
wealthy American in her fifties, well dressed with a touch of
flamboyance, Mrs. Hubbard is a tough-talking broad with rough
edge and a bold sense of humor which irritates many of the
Europeans.</li>
