An Irish theatre company celebrating a big anniversary is leaning into that genre with a new twist on a much-loved Agatha Christie tale.
With the lives of the Knives Out series, a return to the big screen for Agatha Christie classics and the Harlan Coben run on Netflix, murder mysteries are enjoying quite the resurgence. An Irish theatre company celebrating a big anniversary, this year, is leaning into that genre with a new twist on a much-loved tale.Phelan spoke to JOE about the milestone and how the rehearsals are going, with the show hitting the stage in just under a month.
Witness for the Prosecution written by Agitha Christie in 1925 but was originally called ‘Traitors Hands’. It was published in a magazine, at the time, called Flynns and was later changed to Witness for the Prosecution, in 1933. It was first performed on stage in 1953, in London. The latest version hits the stage in The Mill Theatre, next month. Phelan is excited to see what the public makes of his group’s take on the classic.
“It was Agatha Christie’s favourite play,” notes Phelan. Given that the prolific author and playwright is responsible for gems like Murder on The Orient Express, Death on The Nile and The Mousetrap, that is quite the endorsement.
