Ten guests. One island. Justice
comes for everyone.
“The murderer is still
among us.”
Philip Lombard | Former officer
About the production
Ten guests arrive on a remote island off the coast of Devon. At first glance, they appear to have nothing in common. The only thing connecting them is a mysterious invitation to a grand villa whose owner remains nowhere to be seen.
The quiet evening is suddenly shattered by a recorded voice accusing every person present of a long-buried crime. In an instant, the luxurious house becomes a trap with no escape. When the first victim is found, it becomes clear that the murderer is still among them.
A storm cuts the island off from the outside world, trust begins to collapse and the tension rises with every passing hour. Each death also follows the pattern of a mysterious nursery rhyme that seems to foretell the fate of everyone present.
Agatha Christie’s legendary mystery, written by the Queen of Crime, draws you into a world where everyone is a suspect, everyone has something to hide and justice arrives in the most unexpected form. Prepare for an evening that keeps the tension alive until the very last moment.
The world of the production
On Soldier Island, the audience is not merely a witness. They are one of the guests. Every image, costume, projection, lighting transition and sound was created with a single purpose — to make the boundary between theatre and reality gradually disappear.
Production
The production does not begin when the curtain rises. It begins the moment the audience receives a letter inviting them to Soldier Island. From then on, they become part of the story just like the ten guests. Original film projections accompany the journey to the island, invite the audience into the house and gradually dissolve the boundary between theatre and reality.
Scenography
The entire production takes place in the main drawing room of the villa on Soldier Island. The rear wall is not a backdrop but a living projection of the island, changing together with the story. Day turns into night, a storm arrives and the weather becomes another performer in the production. The auditorium itself becomes a natural extension of the house — the audience is no longer sitting in front of the stage, but inside it.
Costumes
The costumes draw on the elegance of the late 1930s and reflect the social standing of each of the ten characters. Every cut, material and colour choice helps reveal character before the first line is even spoken. Luxury, military austerity, workwear and understated feminine elegance come together to create a world in which no one is quite who they first appear to be.
Direction
The directing concept is built around complete audience immersion in the story. The boundary between stage and auditorium gradually disappears. Gunshots are heard from among the audience, the storm sweeps through the entire room, wind enters through open windows and no one can be quite certain whether they are watching theatre or have become part of the events on the island. Original film sequences expand the world of the production, while the mysterious boy from the projections later appears on stage as a silent witness to the entire story.
Lighting
The lighting design belongs not only to the stage but to the entire auditorium. Every member of the audience experiences the same shifts in light as the characters on the island. The storm consumes the space, a power cut plunges the theatre into darkness, and every return of the light reveals a new situation. Here, lighting does more than create atmosphere — it becomes part of the storytelling itself.
Gallery
The production was not staged on its originally intended date, so the gallery does not yet contain performance photographs.
THE COMPANY
The original creative concept envisioned the production being brought to life in collaboration with these people.
