Synopsis: 'A quintessential English country estate is thrown into chaos following the murder of eccentric inventor Sir Claud Amory, and the theft of his new earth shattering formula. Arriving at the estate just moments too late, one man immediately senses a potent brew of despair, treachery, and deception amid the estate's occupants. That man is Hercule Poirot.'

This production of Black Coffee is directed by Joe Harmston and features scenic design by Simon Scullion, lighting by Douglas Kuhrt, sound design by Matthew Bugg and costumes by Nikki Bird. It is produced by Bill Kenwright by special arrangement with Agatha Christie Ltd.
