- Show
A masterpiece of suspense
On a remote island off England’s Devon coast, 10 strangers gather after receiving mysterious invitations. Each guest is hiding a dark secret, and while they wait for the hosts to arrive, a chilling gramophone recording accuses them of crimes they thought were long buried. One by one, the guests begin to die in eerie accordance with a sinister nursery rhyme. Trapped by stormy weather, suspicions turn inward: The killer must be among them. Based on the bestselling mystery novel of all time and adapted by Agatha Christie herself, this thrilling tale invites audiences to unravel the deadly riddle. Will the killer be revealed before it’s too late?
Three things to know
- And Then There Were None is considered the bestselling mystery novel of all time, and Agatha Christie considered it a personal favorite among her vast body of work.

- The Guthrie previously produced Christie’s The Mousetrap in 2025, also directed by Tracy Brigden, and Ken Ludwig’s adaptation of Murder on the Orient Express in 2023.

“Most of the archetypal mystery tropes we know and love originated with Agatha Christie. She was excellent at writing taut, smart puzzles, and her work continues to influence pop culture in The White Lotus and Knives Out. I’m thrilled to stage another one of her well-crafted mysteries at the Guthrie this season.”
– Director Tracy Brigden
