Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the Orient Express in its tracks. The luxurious train is surprisingly full for the time of the year, but by the morning it is one passenger fewer. 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.
Ken Ludwig's clever adaptation of the Agatha Christie classic boasts all the glamour, intrigue and suspense of Dame Agatha's celebrated novel, with a healthy dose of humor to quicken the pace.
Thursday-Saturday shows begin at 7:30 PM. Sunday matinees begin at 2 PM.
For tickets visit cheyennelittletheatre.org or call (307) 638-6543 Tues.-Fri. from 12-5 PM.

Join Off Square Theatre for a staged reading of THREE SISTERS, Anton Chekhov’s classic play. May 31 | 1:30pm & 6:30pm June 1 | 4:00pm
Olga, Masha, and Irina are stuck in a rural town they hate. They detest the lack of culture, and they aren’t wild about the snow. They were raised in Moscow but can’t seem to tear themselves away from their provincial life, no matter how hard they try. (Or think they try.)
Friends visit, drink, and talk—well, for the most part everybody stays friends, but life and love get messy in a small town. Flames catch, years pass, and the three sisters laugh, cry, and dance through it all. THREE SISTERS features direction by Allison Watrous and translation from Paul Schmidt.
Come to the June 1 performance and stay after for a talkback featuring Stephen Lottridge—and enjoy thematic refreshments!
