Published/Last Modified on Friday, December 1, 2006 11:57 AM MST


Bisbee's Obscure Productions will open Agatha Christie's "A Murder is Announced" on Friday, December 1 at 7:30 pm. This play is based on the Miss Marple mystery novel and adapted for the stage by Leslie Darbon.


"Murder" will play Fridays and Saturdays, December 1 & 2, 8 & 9, at 7:30 pm. There will also be a matinee at 3:00 pm on Sunday, December 3. All shows will be at the Bisbee Woman's Club, 7 Ledge Avenue on Quality Hill in Old Bisbee.

"A Murder is Announced" is one of the best Christie stage mysteries. Almost every character is hiding a secret, and there are several twists and turns as Inspector Craddock tries to solve the mystery.

Craddock is played by David Hight, and he is both helped and surpassed by Miss Marple, played by Bisbee favorite Pearl Watkins. The extremely talented cast includes Dixie as Dora Bunner, Fiona Lillard as Julia and newcomer Carrie Ray as Miss Blacklock.

Tickets are $8 in advance at Atalanta's Music & Books, Plaza Liquor, Bisbee Food Coop and Bisbee Visitors' Center. Tickets can be ordered by mail from BOP at PO Box 277, Bisbee AZ 85603. They will be $10 at the door. For more information, please contact Rae Jones at (520) 236-1754 or email bisbeesobscure@gmail.com.
