The community is invited to attend Great Bend High School’s spring production of “And Then There Were None,” by Agatha Christie. Three performances will be offered, Sunday, March 1 at 2 p.m., Monday, March 2 at 7 p.m., and Tuesday, March 3 at 7 p.m.
“This is a murder mystery with lots of twists, turns, and suspense,” said Holly Johnson, drama teacher at Great Bend High School.
The production will be at the Great Bend High School Auditorium, 2027 Morton. Tickets can be purchased in advance from cast members for $4 each, or they will be available at the door for $6 each. Not appropriate for young viewers, it is suggested that attendees be at least 13 years old.
The Play:
“Ten guilty strangers are trapped on an island. One by one they are accused of murder; one by one they start to die. Statuettes of little soldier boys on the mantel of a house on an island off the coast of Devon fall to the floor and break one by one as those in the house succumb to a diabolical avenger.
A nursery rhyme tells how each of the ten “soldiers” met his death until there were none. Eight guests who have never met each other or their apparently absent host and hostess are lured to the island and, along with the two house servants, marooned. A mysterious voice accuses each of having gotten away with murder and then one drops dead - poisoned. One down and nine to go!” – Samuel French
