FLAT ROCK, N.C. — For opening night, the Flat Rock Playhouse’s production of “Murder on the Orient Express” will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Sept. 5  on the mainstage, FRP,  2661 Greenville Highway, here.

The show will be performed through Sept. 28. Showtimes vary. 

Regarding the show, the FRP stated, “Whodunit? Detective Poirot is determined to find out in Agatha Christie’s thrilling murder mystery. 

“Passengers aboard the opulent Orient Express awake to frightful news: Overnight, the American business mogul among them was stabbed to death behind locked doors. 

“Thankfully, debonair detective Hercule Poirot is on the train and on the case and suddenly every passenger becomes a suspect. Tensions rise as Poirot searches for the killer lurking in their midst and who just may strike again.  All aboard for a suspenseful evening that will keep you on the edge of your seat.”

The most-famous line from the murder mystery — reportedly — is the following: “The impossible could not have happened, therefore the impossible must be possible.”
