Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express is a stylish, suspenseful mystery that traps a killer aboard the world’s most famous train.

Just after midnight, the luxurious Orient Express is halted by a snowdrift, and by morning an American tycoon lies dead in his locked compartment, stabbed multiple times with no obvious way in or out. With the train stranded and a murderer still on board, legendary Belgian detective Hercule Poirot must untangle a web of alibis and secrets, before the killer can strike again.

Poirot interrogates a gallery of international suspects—a glamorous countess, a nervous secretary, a stiff‑necked colonel, a formidable American matron, a mysterious governess, and more—each with something to hide and a possible motive for revenge.

Christie’s classic novel inspired the 1974 movie with Albert Finney as Poirot alongside Lauren Bacall, Ingrid Bergman, Sean Connery, Vanessa Redgrave, and John Gielgud. The 2017 film starred Kenneth Branagh, with an ensemble including Penélope Cruz, William Dafoe, Judi Dench, Johnny Depp, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Daisy Ridley.

This stage adaptation delivers all the glamour, wit, and twists of those films—live and up close—inviting audiences to ride the rails with Poirot and try to solve the crime before he does.

"Yerma" is a tragic play that explores the intense emotional struggle of a woman in rural Spain who is desperate for motherhood, ultimately leading her to tragic consequences.

### Overview

"Yerma," written by Federico García Lorca in 1934, is part of his "Rural Trilogy" and is set in a traditional Spanish village. The play centers around Yerma, a woman who is unable to conceive a child, which becomes an obsession that drives her to despair and ultimately to a horrific act. The title "Yerma" translates to "barren," reflecting her deep longing for motherhood and the societal pressures surrounding it.

### Plot Summary

Yerma is married to Juan, who is indifferent to her desire for children. As the play unfolds, Yerma's desperation grows, and she becomes increasingly frustrated with her childlessness. She observes her friends and neighbors caring for their children, which intensifies her feelings of inadequacy and isolation. Throughout the play, she grapples with societal expectations that define a woman's worth by her ability to bear children.

Yerma's interactions with other characters, such as her friend María, who is pregnant, and Víctor, who represents a potential romantic interest, highlight her internal conflict. Despite her beauty and spirit, Yerma feels trapped in a loveless marriage and is haunted by the fear that her life will remain unfulfilled. The chorus of women in the play serves to emphasize the societal norms and pressures placed upon her, creating a sense of collective judgment and surveillance.

Barefoot in the Park is Neil Simon’s classic romantic comedy about what really happens after “happily ever after” begins.

Newlyweds Corie and Paul Bratter have just finished a blissful honeymoon and are moving into their first apartment—a tiny, drafty fifth‑ or sixth‑floor walk‑up in Manhattan with a leaky skylight, no bathtub, and far too much rent.

Corie is a free‑spirited optimist who sees the charm in every imperfection, while Paul is a buttoned‑up young lawyer who prefers order, caution, and central heating. Their opposing personalities are tested as Corie attempts to spice up their lives by fixing up her anxious mother, Ethel, with their eccentric neighbor Victor Velasco, leading to a disastrous double date on a freezing night that pushes the Bratters to the brink.

Over the course of a few chaotic days, slammed doors, hurt feelings, and one memorable fight, the couple must decide whether they can embrace each other’s differences and meet in the middle—perhaps even learning to run “barefoot in the park” together.

Simon’s hit play later became the beloved 1967 film Barefoot in the Park, starring Robert Redford and Jane Fonda as the irrepressible Corie.
