happens to be having an affair with her best friend… a new adaptation of Somerset Maugham’s comedy.

Tuesday 27 January DEATH ON THE NILE Festival Theatre
Agatha Christie’s Poirot’s holiday takes a dark turn when a murder takes place on a luxurious

Tuesday 3 February IT WALKS ABOUT THE HOUSE AT NIGHT Minerva
When an out-of-work actor takes a job playing a ghost at an old countryside manor he expects a
few cheap scares but soon far more frightening things start to take place. Dare you watch this
new play by Doctor Who writer, Tim Foley?
No ticket prices are available yet but these are touring shows so prices will probably be higher than
Chichester’s summer season tickets: I will let you know as soon as I can.
If you are interested in joining any of these proposed excursions, please contact me as soon as possible.
Thank you.
