Set in 1932 on the glamorous Orient Express, a long-distance passenger train connecting continental Europe to west Asia, the play takes place primarily in Istanbul and Yugoslavia. But the passenger list includes dignitaries from all over the globe. 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.Hold on to your mustache and get ready for a wild ride with Hercule Poirot! In this comedic twist on the famous mystery, Poirot must solve the crime of a man stabbed in his locked compartment on the opulent Orient Express - where every passenger is a suspect. One of Agatha Christie’s most renowned titles, you won’t want to miss the twists, thrills, and laughs in this incredibly popular comedy-mystery.
