​

Step into the courtroom where charisma collides with cold, hard evidence. A young man, Leonard Vole, stands accused of murdering a wealthy widow who left him her fortune. His fate hangs on the testimony of one woman—his wife—and the shock of what she says in the witness box will turn the trial on its head.Agatha Christie’s Witness for the Prosecution is a pulse-quickening courtroom thriller famed for its whiplash twists and a finale you won’t see coming. ​First staged by Christie in 1953 and now celebrating a century since its original story was published, this is one of the Queen of Crime’s most accomplished plays—sleek, suspenseful, and meticulously engineered to keep audiences guessing until the very end.
