Mrs. Christie @McCarter Theatre

Sunday May 17, 2026
2:00 PM

In 1926, Agatha Christie vanished, then reappeared eleven days later without explanation. It was a tabloid sensation—a mystery that remains unsolved nearly a century later. In 2026, Christie superfan Lucy makes the pilgrimage to the author’s estate. When she happens upon an unpublished diary written in Christie’s own hand, Lucy resolves to crack the case once and for all. In parallel storylines that blend past and present, Mrs. Christie proves that sometimes you need to disappear in order to find yourself.
