Black Coffee

5 - 11 October 2025

by Agatha Christie
directed by Harry Harding

Black Coffee is a play by the British crime-fiction author Agatha Christie. The first piece that Christie wrote for the stage, it launched a successful second career for her as a playwright. This three-act Poirot thriller – a superbly crafted whodunit with endless red herrings, subplots of infamous spies and an astonishingly prophetic storyline about weapons created through “bombarding the atom” – is one of Christie’s most gripping country house murder mysteries. In the play, a scientist discovers that someone in his household has stolen the formula for an explosive. The scientist calls the famous Belgian Detective Hercule Poirot to investigate, but is then murdered just as Poirot arrives with Hastings and Inspector Japp.
