Viva Arts and Community Group presents:
Murder on the Nile, by Agatha Christie
We join the wealthy heiress, Kay Ridgeway, as she honeymoons aboard the Lotus paddle-steamer on the Nile. Everyone aboard bears Kay a grudge and, whilst the surroundings are idyllic, fatal circumstances await as one of them is brutally murdered. As the tension builds, passenger Canon Pennefather investigates and ultimately unfolds a shocking conspiracy. Can you work it out before he does?
Written in 1944, Murder on the Nile is based on Agatha Christie’s 1937 novel, Death on the Nile.
*Please be aware that language used by the characters is of the period and some of it may be deemed offensive today. The show contains weapons and loud noises.
