Agatha Christie’s Towards Zero

July 9 @ 19:30 to 22:00
£18

Calling all Agatha Christie enthusiasts! Don’t miss an unforgettable adaptation of one of Christie’s most captivating murder mysteries: Towards Zero. This thrilling production, brought to you by Bijou Theatre Productions, is part of their esteemed annual Agatha Christie run, a tradition that has delighted audiences since 1984.

Towards Zero is a mesmerizing journey into the human psyche. This production feels like opening a long-locked door. The intrigue begins not with a murder, but with the intricate web of choices, grudges, and tensions that simmer beneath the surface. Expect a gripping examination of jealousy and the subtle dynamics at play, as the story unfolds in an atmosphere charged with suspense.

The Plot Unfolds.  Set against the stunning backdrop of Gull’s Point, the seaside residence of Lady Tressilian, the story invites you into a house party where Neville Strange finds himself torn between his ex-wife, Audrey, and his new love, Kay. As tensions rise, the stage is set for a chilling exploration of human emotions that leads to a shocking and brutal murder.

Originally adapted for the stage by Gerald Verner, Towards Zero first premiered at the St. James’s Theatre in London in 1956. The play beautifully captures the essence of Agatha Christie’s writing, and its connection to the Devon coastline—the inspiration behind the fictional locations of Saltcreek and Gull’s Point—adds an authentic touch for local audiences.

Don’t miss your chance to enjoy this thrilling production of Towards Zero, running at 7:30 PM on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from June 9 to July 30, 2026. Tickets are priced at £18. Book yours now.

This amateur production of ‘Towards Zero’ is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. https://www.concordtheatricals.co.uk/
