The Rats and The Wasps’ Nest


by Agatha Christie

Directed by Austene Van

SEPTEMBER 29–OCTOBER 29, 2023

Agatha Christie's sharp-dressed, keen-eyed detective—Hercule Poirot—comes alive in a double-header evening of mystery at Yellow Tree Theatre!

In The Rats, Sandra Grey is a young widow, summoned to a high-class dinner party. Arriving at a curiously-empty flat, she soon entangles herself in a triangle with her secret lover and his social rival...and when a murder is announced, suspicions and doubt cut in every direction. And in The Wasp's Nest, Poirot arrives in London for his greatest feat yet: solving a homicide before it happens.

With both one-acts performing every evening, The Rats and The Wasp's Nest are the perfect additions to your October, tied together by the glamour and intrigue from the Golden Age of Hollywood.

Cast: Tara Borman, Maggie Cramer, Charles Fraser, Christopher Kehoe, and Paul Lanave
