Murder in the Studio

Three Radio Plays by

Agatha Christie

22nd to 27th January 2024

We’re in a 1950’s BBC radio studio as three Agatha Christie Radio Plays are being recorded.

Butter in a Lordly Dish in which barrister Sir Luke Enderby takes a trip to the country.
Personal Call involves a mysterious phone call, seemingly from beyond the grave.
Yellow Iris in which Hercule Poirot revisits a cold-blooded killer, who escaped justice.

Travel back in time with us to the Golden Age of Radio.

There will be two separate teams of actors. Team Agatha will perform Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday matinee. Team Christie will perform Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday evening.
