Agatha Christie's Black Coffee
Black Coffee is Agatha Christie's first original play, first performed in 1930, featuring Hercule Poirot investigating the murder of physicist Sir Claude Amory, who was poisoned after his secret atomic bomb formula was stolen from his library. The plot involves a classic whodunit with a locked-room mystery, red herrings, and a cast of suspicious houseguests, culminating in Poirot's dramatic reveal of the killer and the formula's location. Culver City Public Theatre's new production will feature the first female Hercule Poirot.
