And Then There Were None

And Then There Were None is a stage drama based on the murder mystery novel by Agatha Christie. The story begins when eight guests arrive on a remote island off the coast of England. Greeted by the cook and butler, the guests await their enigmatic host. After they discover a morbid nursery rhyme framed on the wall and ten figures on the dining room table -- one for each person in the house -- they receive a threatening and accusatory message from their host. Panic strikes and one guest downs a drink, which ultimately poisons him. The remaining nine people find one of the figurines broken and quickly realize the narrator in the nursery rhyme holds their fate.
