The venerable Theatre in the Round is showing Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Nile until December 13th. This is light entertainment, centering around a boat trip up the Nile around the beginning of the 20th century, and the question of who murdered the richest woman in England. The traveling maid? The old, very proper woman?
How about the Communist who isn’t what he appears to be?
While I was a little disappointed with the lead – he seemed to have only one expression – in general I enjoyed myself. There’s nothing deep intended, and nothing deep found; an evening’s pleasant entertainment at the Twin Cities’ oldest continuously operating playhouse.
Have fun.
