Murder, Margaret and Me

Agatha Christie and Margaret Rutherford should never have been friends. But they were. Their paths crossed when they found themselves at the heart of one of British cinema's most successful franchises. However, the Miss Marple films almost didn't get made…


Our production of Murder, Margaret and Me is one of the events being staged to mark the 50th anniversary of the death of Agatha Christie. It is a story of friendship, identity and the achievement of women in the long-lost world of the silver screen.


This amateur production of Murder, Margaret and Me is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd, on behalf of Samuel French Ltd.

The Christophers


An ageing, once-celebrated painter finds his legacy under threat as his opportunistic children scheme to profit from his unfinished work. They enlist a struggling artist to secretly complete his iconic “Christophers” series, but the plan unravels as she forms an unexpected bond with the sharp and unpredictable Julian. As questions of authorship, authenticity and artistic integrity come to the fore, loyalties shift and ambitions collide. The Christophers is a darkly comic, character-driven story about creativity, exploitation and the uneasy line between homage and deception, anchored by two standout performances.
