Theatre group Harlequinade present one of Agatha Christie's most intriguing murder mysteries in The Core’s intimate Studio space, taking audiences on a deadly cruise down the river Nile.
Kay Ridgeway has led a charmed life. Blessed with beauty, enormous wealth, and a new husband, she embarks on a honeymoon voyage down the Nile. Fatal circumstances await when the idyllic surroundings are shattered by a shocking and brutal murder. Under scrutiny is a multitude of memorable passengers, all with a reason to kill. The tension and claustrophobia builds, as a shocking and audacious conspiracy is laid bare.
Harlequinade will be donating profits from ticket sales to three charities - Social Life Opportunities (supporting children, young people and adults with learning disabilities), Shine Youth (supporting young people to have good mental health, positive self-esteem and identity) and Surfers Against Sewage (marine conservation and campaigning charity).
Ticket Price: £14 full, £12 all concessions
