After Agatha Christie

The story is set in 1930, the 19th year of the Republic of China. After the assassination of General Marshal Tso-lin Chang, Xueliang Chang nominated himself as Northeast Security Forces Commander and stationed in northeast of China. During the war of Central Plains, Xueliang Chang took the lead and became the biggest winner. At the same time, older Marshals and Generals retired one by one… A Winter’s night in Jilin was so cold that people shivered. A car, not far away, roared in the foggy night. Through beam of car light, there was a house. It appeared unoccupied. A strange man stepped into this house for help. He never thought that he had actually entered a window to a human’s heart. He was involved in a murder. A General who had once bravely fought with the enemy was now lying in blood, silently. A women stood by the body in the dark, gazing at this ‘unexpected guest’. One murder is always intertwined with numerous stories.Was it a crime or a justice? The truth will be dis-enthralled on the stage. People fall for the process of seeking truth in Agatha’s stories. After all, the origin of each story is a test of human nature, be it beauty or ugliness, good or evil. Who pulled the trigger and who is the unexpected guest? On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the establishment of Chinese Theatre Group, we set Agatha’s story in the Republic of China. Brace for the suspense.
