WELCOME
FOUNDER, ARTISTIC DIRECTOR
VINCENT M. LANCISI
Welcome to Everyman Theatre’s happy holidays murder mystery thriller! Some theatres produce The Christmas Carol or other holiday themed plays to celebrate the season. We like to produce a good gripping who-done-it play filled with murders, twists of the story, and shocking discoveries around every corner. And for some reason, our audiences seem to love a good thriller this time of year! It’s great to see lots of groups buying tickets to come together in this jolly time of year and see a gripping story unfold live on stage. It’s fun. It’s thrilling. It’s Everyman celebrating the joy found in a great story, well told.
Who better to represent the great mystery writers in the world than the grand dame of mystery herself, Agatha Christie? And Then There Were None is her most popular mystery and it’s easy to see why. With this play and novel, she invented a mini genre within the world of mysteries that has been repeated throughout time, including on famous stories of the cinema and television today. Think “Knives Out” among others. They all involve solving mysteries within the people of the story, trapped together left to figure out the killer among themselves without a detective or help from the outside. It’s simply, well, thrilling!
Don’t miss Primary Trust up next at Everyman. It’s a wonderful play by a dynamic new writer in the American Theatre, Eboni Booth. There’s a reason Primary Trust won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and is being produced at many major regional theatres across the country this season. The Daily Beast called it “NYC’s best new play…beautifully written…a 95 minute, intermissionless, buffed-to-gleaming jewel.” Primary Trust is a simple, original and uplifting story of an emotionally damaged man who goes on a journey of finding a new job, new friend, and a sense of self-worth. It’s the kind of play that gives us faith in community and in the power of small acts of kindness. Come join us for this heartwarming triumph.
The entire company of And Then There Were None and staff of Everyman Theatre wish you and yours a happy holiday season.
Enjoy the show.

Welcome to Everyman!
I’ve been thinking a lot in recent weeks about the power of theater to unite people and strengthen communities. Unlike streaming, live performance demands your full attention. You are a participant sharing a room amidst creation. Your presence, and the presence of those around you, impacts the experience. The power of theater goes beyond the stage and taps into the experience and perspectives we each bring to the story.
This power continues with the gears that turn in your mind after; in the discussion you have on the sidewalk as you exit or at lunch tomorrow when you’re still thinking about a particular scene. We are fueled by seeing ourselves and those completely different from us on stage. The power of theater is not just in the stories told, but in the emotions evoked and the empathy inspired.
At Everyman, we invoke the power of theater to build community over 200 days every year with over 24,000 visits. Community building at Everyman starts with onstage performances and deepens in the classroom and through partnerships. We build our theater in Baltimore, with Baltimore, and for Baltimore because we believe in the power of theater to strengthen Baltimore.
If during today’s performance you find yourself leaning into the story with those around you or laughing harder because the person behind you is laughing, you’re experiencing the power of theater to unite. If you find the gears of your mind turning and itching to discuss the show afterward, you are experiencing the power of theater to build community. As 2024 comes to an end and we look to the future, Baltimore will be stronger because of Everyman Theatre, and Everyman can be stronger with your support. Please consider supporting Everyman in building community with a donation today.
Text EMAN to 44321, scan the QR code at the right, or drop a donation as you leave today. Together we make a stronger, more connected Baltimore.
Thank you and enjoy the show!

Born in Torquay, England in 1890, Agatha Christie is the best-selling novelist of all time. With over one billion books sold in English and another billion in over 100 languages, she is outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare. She wrote 80 crime novels and collections of short stories, over 25 plays (including The Mousetrap, the world’s longest running play), and six novels under the pseudonym Mary Westmacott. Her first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, introduced the world to the Belgian detective Hercule Poirot, followed a decade later by the shrewd and often-underestimated Miss Marple.

Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None (2024)
DANGER CLOSE
Agatha Christie spent her childhood in a loving and lavish home—a Victorian villa called Ashfield—where she was treasured by an adoring family. Yet a feature of her early years that resonated throughout her life was a recurring nightmare of an unexpected frightening presence. In her autobiography, she recalls, “The dream would be quite ordinary–a tea-party, or a walk with various people, usually a mild festivity of some kind. Then suddenly a feeling of uneasiness would come. There was someone–someone who ought not to be there–a horrid feeling of fear.” Historian Lucy Worsley draws a connection between this recurring nightmare and a fundamental premise of Christie’s writing: “even at the heart of a happy home, a canker of evil might exist.” Out of this notion that at any moment danger may be close at hand, Christie would create murder mysteries so compelling that she became the best-selling novelist of all time. Her skillful storytelling thrilled audiences and captured the anxiety of her age in a way that not only assured the ongoing popularity of her works, but made its way into the horror films and psychological thrillers of future generations. Nowhere were her powers as a writer more evident than in the world’s best-selling mystery novel, which would be the first of her books that she would adapt into a play: And Then There Were None.
The New York Times greeted the book enthusiastically upon its US publication, and wrote, “the whole thing is utterly impossible and utterly fascinating.” Christie herself was particularly pleased with the work, and deemed both the book and play, “a better piece of craftsmanship than anything else I have written.” Her innovative conception of the play’s setting, action, and characters make the utterly impossible, utterly plausible. A group of strangers has been invited to an escapist vacation weekend in a beautiful modern house that is the only building on an isolated island. But, as so often in Christie’s writing, things are not what they seem. This apparent escape quickly becomes a trap. A recorded voice claims that each guest has a secret crime in their past and implies that retribution is imminent. Soon the deaths begin to mount, following the pattern outlined in a nursery rhyme displayed in the main room. With no escape from the island and no ability to contact the outside world, this closed circle of potential victims doubles as the circle of suspects. As theatre historian Julius Green has observed, “Paranoia sets in as the norms of social interaction begin to disintegrate, and the characters expose their own vulnerability as they each begin to suspect the others.”
And Then There Were None not only thrilled readers and theatre audiences with a skillfully crafted mystery, it also captured the anxiety of the moment in which it appeared. The novel was published in November 1939, two months after Great Britain declared war on Germany. And while the book had been written on the eve of war (and the story set in that historical moment), the play did not premiere until the fall of 1942, by which time the country was suffering repeated military attacks by Germany. As Green noted, “Without consciously creating a wartime or a military piece Christie
CLOSE AT HAND
had exactly tapped into the contemporary zeitgeist.” Danger was indeed close at hand for the audiences of those early West End performances, as can be seen in the following excerpt from their program note:
Warning of an AIR RAID will be given by a RED electrical sign above the orchestra pit. ALL CLEAR will similarly be shown in GREEN. Patrons are advised to remain in the Theatre, but those wishing to leave will be directed to the nearest official air-raid shelter, after which the performance will be continued for so long as is practicable.
With those connections between the world of the play and the world of the audience, Green concludes it is easy to imagine “how this scenario might have resonated with the vulnerable inhabitants of an island state at war with a powerful enemy, and where, as the programme’s [sic] notes on evacuation procedures make clear, everyone is a potential victim.”
The appeal of And Then There Were None in Christie’s time also reverberated into the future. It inspired five feature films, popular board and video games, and countless replications of its dramatic devices in mystery and horror films. As in Christie’s book and play, past crimes haunt the present in films from Halloween to Friday the 13th. These works also present a community of individuals who will be stalked and killed one-by-one, with the audience left to wonder who—if anyone—will survive. Danger is lurking inside a happy household in films like When a Stranger Calls and Black Christmas. The Italian genre of giallo films also includes such devices found in Christie’s writing and sometimes adds a supernatural element to the story. Everyman Theatre takes our audiences back to the play that inspired so much to come with our production of the ground-breaking and enduringly popular edge-of-your-seat thriller, And Then There Were None.

Everyman Theatre is a welcoming and inclusive space for everyone – audience members, students, artists, volunteers, staff, and trustees – to experience art and be part of a positive community where all can be treated with kindness and respect.
In order to make this a reality we need your help in upholding our core values and creating a space that allows everyone to fully participate in the transformative experience of live theatre.
WE BELIEVE THAT…
• Everyone is deserving of kindness and respect
• All individuals deserve to feel welcomed and included in the work we do
• It’s our collective responsibility to maintain a safe and supportive environment
• Theatre provokes thought and inspires dialogue, which builds our capacity for empathy, understanding, and connection
• It’s our collective responsibility to oppose racism by consciously, purposefully, and continually striving against racial biases and the systemic structures that perpetuate them
• We must take a united stance against all forms of oppression or marginalization, and recognize that although discomfort may be productive, cruelty never is
WE INVITE YOU TO…
• Embrace a mindset of goodwill and extend courtesy to others
• Immerse yourself fully in the performance – applaud, shed a tear, laugh out loud, and express your emotions freely
• Embrace your fellow audience members’ reactions and cherish the fact that theatre is a shared journey
• Make a deliberate effort to confront your own biases, and partner with us in putting these beliefs into action. We are all learning - help us maintain a positive community and culture of collaboration
• Share your feedback and experiences with us, as we are continually looking to improve
WE WILL NOT TOLERATE…
• Discrimination, harassment, or any form of speech/behavior that threatens the safety or well-being of others
• Unwanted invasion of another person’s physical space
• Refusal to comply with staff instructions or disregarding the theatre’s policies
Any conduct that contributes to a dangerous or hostile environment will be taken seriously. If you witness or experience a violation of the values and expectations outlined above, please alert one of our staff members. Everyman takes this feedback very seriously and will take action to protect our community.
Thank you for joining us and being a part of the Everyman Family!
GRATITUDE FOR THOSE BEFORE US
We honor the Indigenous Piscataway, Lumbee, and Cherokee people of Baltimore City and the unceded ancestral lands of the Piscataway on which Everyman Theatre resides. This acknowledgement does not take the place of authentic relationships with Indigenous communities, but serves as a first step in honoring the land we occupy and as an act of resistance against the erasure of their histories.
