Play Reading at the Institute
Witness for the Prosecution by Agatha Christie
Tuesday, October 15, 2024
7:00 p.m.–9:00 p.m.
Rubenstein Commons Living Room

Play Reading is a popular activity that brings the IAS community together to read plays. The group meets at 7:00 pm on several evenings this year in the Rubenstein Commons. The readings are not performances, so you need not be ‘experienced.’ Everyone is given a part to read, but if you prefer to just listen to the play instead of reading a role, come and sit back with a glass of wine and some ‘nibbles’ and enjoy the evening. All are warmly welcome! 

We will be reading: Witness for the Prosecution, by Agatha Christie 

Leonard Vole is accused of murdering a widow to inherit her wealth. The stakes are high. Will Leonard survive the shocking witness testimony? Will he be able to convince the jury of his innocence and escape the hangman’s noose? Generally regarded as one of Christie’s most accomplished plays, this suspenseful thriller keeps audiences guessing until the very end.
