AUDITIONS: Agatha Christie Mystery at Magenta Theater

Magenta Theater announces auditions for "Black Coffee" written by Agatha Christie and directed by Amanda Goff, 6:30-9:30 p.m. (doors open at 6:00 p.m.), Monday July 22, 2013.

The play features the beloved Christie character Hercule Poirot  who is summoned by England's most prominent physicist, Sir Claud Amory. Amory fears that someone in his household is attempting to steal his latest discovery, a formula critical to England's defence. Poirot, with Captain Hastings at his side, rushes to get there, but arrives too late: Amory has died, his formula is missing and anyone in his country house, full of relatives and guests, could have been responsible.
