Trying to get their hands on more than a little inheritance, a group of young people hide the body of a dead tycoon. But what starts as a lark quickly becomes all too serious when they discover that the body is in fact a murder victim.
A comedy about business and finance, with a strong undercurrent of criminal activity, the play combines humor, intricate plotting and a confounding murder.
Agatha Christie’s final stage play was originally performed in Bristol in 1971 under the title Fiddlers Five. Christie revised the script, combined two characters and simplified several of the red herrings, and Fiddlers Three was completed in 1972.
