And Then There Were None

Ticket sales are now open for Thrapston Amateur Dramatic Societies’ next production of “And Then There Were None” by Agatha Christie. The show is directed by Lisa Punter and will be performed at the Thrapston Plaza from Wednesday 10th – Saturday 13th May 2017. Doors open at 7pm, performance starts at 7:30pm.

Ten strangers, apparently with little in common, are lured to an island mansion off the coast of Devon by the mysterious U.N.Owen. Over dinner a record begins to play, and the voice of an unseen host accuses each person of hiding a guilty secret. That evening, one of the guests is found dead. The tension escalates as the survivors realise that a killer is not only among them but is preparing to strike again… and again…

Spring production changes!

Unfortunately due to an extended run in the West end, the license for “An Inspector Calls” is not going to be available in time for the spring production. The auditions originally scheduled for January 6th will instead be replaced with a script read through of the proposed replacement, “And Then There Were None” by Agatha Christie. Assuming the play is well received and Lisa is comfortable with directing it, then auditions will be rescheduled for later in the month.
