Witness For The Prosecution by Agatha Christie

Join us and celebrate 10 years of midwinter Agatha Christie Murder Mysteries at The PumpHouse Theatre.

Leonard Vole stands accused of murdering a wealthy widow. The stakes are high with shocking witness testimony, impassioned outbursts from the dock, and a young man's fight to escape the hangman's noose… all with a classic Christie twist in the tale.

Regarded as one of Agatha Christie's most accomplished plays, this suspenseful thriller keeps audiences guessing until the very end.

Jury Box Seats
Twelve select patrons per show are invited to join the court in the Jury Box. From your seat on stage in the middle of the action, you'll be sworn in, listen to the evidence, and support the foreperson to deliver the verdict.

The Court will provide (ice cream) refreshments at the interval and a souvenir photo for these 12 dedicated jurors. Make sure you select a 'Jury Box Seat' when booking - Jury Box Tickets are $40.

Tāmaki Makaurau, Auckland's Elemental AKL Festival, is back this July with a captivating programme of arts, eats, and beats. From 20 July - 6 August more than 30 free and ticketed events will transform eateries, bars, theatres, and public spaces into an urban oasis of exciting experiences.
