Synoposis
A mysterious invitation arrives and ten strangers are summoned to a luxurious mansion on a remote island off the coast of Devon. Upon arrival, the guests soon realise not everything is as it seems and, as a storm crashes over the island, a more sinister plot begins to develop making the reason that they have all been gathered terrifyingly clear.
This play is based on the novel “And Then There Were None” by Agatha Christie, renowned for her ability to weave together suspense and drama with an unhealthy dose of murder. This adaptation, produced by Louth Playgoers, aims to recreate this dramatic story using modern stylised approaches whilst staying true to the original setting and plot.
