And Then There were None

Wednesday 21 May

Session Time: 1pm

Cost: $71 and is payable by 12 March
In Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None, ten people are invited to the secluded Soldier Island off the coast of England. Each of them has received an invitation from a Mr. or Mrs. U.N. Owen, but as they arrive, they realize that their hosts are nowhere to be found.

The guests, all coming from different backgrounds, are intrigued by a children's nursery rhyme about ten little soldiers that hangs in each room on the island. Disturbingly, a set of ten solider figurines placed in the dining room begins to correspond with the rhyme as guests start dying one by one.

As the guests settle in, they each find a phonograph recording that accuses them of past crimes that have gone unpunished. Soon after, the first guest, Anthony Marston, dies suddenly after choking on his drink, matching the first verse of the nursery rhyme.

More deaths swiftly follow, each eerily mimes the verses of the nursery rhyme as their ten soldier figurines continue to decrease in number. The characters find themselves trapped, with no way of leaving the island and an unseen mastermind killing them one by one.
