Synopsis

Our Review:
2 November 2010
Agatha Christie’s Witness for the Prosecution is a classic tale of murder, love, betrayal, greed and drama set in the 1950’s. The action takes place in the Chambers of Sir Wilfred Robarts, QC (Denis Lill) and then in the Number One Court at the Old Bailey, London.
Accused of the murder of Miss Emily French; an older wealthy lonely lady, Leonard Vole (Ben Nealon) must face a jury of his peers who will consider the evidence and deliver their verdict. Conflicting testimony from various sources including Mr Vole, his wife, Romaine (Deborah Grant) and Miss French’s house keeper Janet McKenzie (Elizabeth Power) is expertly managed by Sir Robarts, QC and Vole’s solicitor Mr Mayhew (Robert Duncan). Will justice triumph? The truth will out as they say and in true Agatha Christie tradition; a thrilling, well written plot ensues.
The set is truly fantastic - moving seamlessly between the locations,...
