Theatre Arlington takes on 'Murder on the Orient Express'

Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the Orient Express in its tracks. An American tycoon lies dead in his compartment, stabbed eight times, his door locked from the inside. Isolated and with a killer in their midst, the passengers rely on detective Hercule Poirot to identify the murderer – in case he or she decides to strike again.

With the message of “Elks Care, Elks Share,” #2114 is a truly wonderful sponsor who believes deeply in Theatre Arlington’s mission to present superior, diverse artistic experiences through performance, production, and education.

Natalie Hinds, Mason Bowling, Daniel Ruelas and Luke Longacre round out this stellar cast, supported by resident designers Hope Cox and Ryan Simón.
