Witness For The Prosecution is a stage adaptation of Agatha Christie’s classic novel which has also been a highly acclaimed film. It opens in Manchester in November, and here,
actor and former star of Drop The Dead Donkey – Robert Duncan gives us his five reasons why you should go
along.
2. The Narrative
One of the best twisting denouements ever written.
3. Hold Court
A chance to see local members of the public become amateur sleuths and actual courtroom personnel in the onstage court scenes.
4. The Set Design
A classic set which creates the arena of the Old Bailey Court and in turn imposes a very real presence; even in the less threatening Chambers scenes.
5. The Cast
A worthy and very strong cast that keeps the pace and tension of the play moving in the right dynamic.(Modesty stretched to the limit and beyond in supplying this last reason!)
