black coffee

by Agatha Christie
21 August - 13 September 2026

Who doesn’t love an Agatha Christie whodunit? After a secret document is stolen from his country mansion, accomplished physicist Sir Claud Amory dies with a deadly bitter taste in his mouth.
​Hercule Poirot is called in and confronts the tangle of usual suspects - family friends, old flames, suspicious foreign guests and of course a butler… along with a chest full of poisons. “How do you take your coffee Monsieur?”

​club ryde ex

So frenetic, so farcical... so French!

A philandering husband weaves a convoluted web of marital treachery to spend an idyllic weekend away in the countryside with his chic Parisian model mistress. He arranges for a cordon bleu cook to prepare delights and invites his best friend along too to provide the alibi.

It's fool proof!

What could possibly go wrong?

Plenty it seems...​
