SUMMARY:Agatha Christie’s The Murder of Roger Ackroyd
DESCRIPTION:July 14 – August 1 – A masterfully twisted tale of deception and suspense.  A murder. A mansion. A mysterious cast of suspects. And only one man  can uncover the truth: Hercule Poirot. Agatha Christie’s The Murder of Roger Ackroyd is more than just a mystery—it’s the gold standard of the genre\, widely hailed as “the greatest whodunnit ever written.” In this new adaptation by Mark Shanahan\, Dame Agatha’s twistiest tale is brought to the stage with all its cunning\, charm\, and chilling suspense.
