This Agatha Christie classic features a cast of colorful characters and a plot twist that is sure to delight any mystery fan! Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the Orient Express in its tracks. The luxurious train is surprisingly full for the time of the year, but by the morning it is one passenger fewer. Isolated and with a killer in their midst, the passengers rely on detective Hercule Poirot to identify the murderer – in case he or she decides to strike again. Ken Ludwig’s clever adaptation of Agatha Christie’s Murder On The Orient Express boasts all the glamor, intrigue, and suspense of the celebrated novel, with a healthy dose of humor.
