The Unexpected Guest at the Compass Theatre 14 June

Magic Hat Productions presents The Unexpected Guest, by Agatha Christie, at the Compass Theatre, in Ickenham, northwest London, from 14 to 18 June 2011.

Lost in the fog on a lonely road, a stranger seeks refuge in a nearby house, only to find himself stumbling on to the scene of a murder. When the dead man's wife confesses to the murder of her despised husband, the stranger agrees to provide her with an alibi; but who is he really protecting? In a house full of suspects, whose are the unidentified fingerprints found at the scene? As the plot unfolds, clues are uncovered that open a Pandora's box of loves, hates, family secrets, suspicions, and intrigues. In this seemingly open-and-shut case, nothing is what it appears to be.
