Agatha Christie, undisputed mistress of mystery, creates this thriller set on an estate in Wales. As the play begins, a stranger walks into a house only to find a man murdered and his dazed wife standing over him with a gun. The unexpected guest decides to help her and blame the murder on an intruder. Clues point to a man who died two years ago; and a Pandora’s box of love, hate, suspicion, and intrigue is opened to the night air. This tantalizing tale will keep the audience playing detective until the last piece of the puzzle is in place.

The Center is presenting the show to schools next week, with a target audience of 5th through 12th graders.  So, the show should be good for older kids.

Showtimes:  Friday Feb. 2 and Saturday Feb. 3 at 7:30, Sunday Feb. 4 at 2:00.

Tickets can be purchased here.

The workshops are free.  Registration is required and is available at the children’s desk or by calling 571 2222, ext. 4370.

  • Danny Glover and Felix Justice will be at the Walton Arts Center in Fayetteville on Friday, Feb. 3, 2007 at 8:00pm celebrating the spoken and written words of Martin Luther King and Langston Hughes.  From the Walton Arts Center’s webpage:

The evening begins with actor/director Felix Justice and his critically acclaimed portrayal of Martin Luther King, Jr. Armed with nothing but himself and two of Reverend King’s most memorable and inspiring speeches, Justice virtually transforms into the legendary civil rights leader, momentarily recreating the power of the man and his message. The evening continues with Danny Glover performing theatrical readings from the works of Langston Hughes.

Following the performances, Justice joins Glover on stage for a question and answer session. What emerges is a memorable, heart-felt experience that is not to be missed.

You can purchase tickets for the show here.

  • Do not forget the Grossology Exhibit at the Walton Arts Center’s Nadine Baum Learning Center.
