Cockpit in Court Summer Theatre Presents THE UNEXPECTED GUESTS

Just when the mystery of a murder seems to be solved, The Unexpected Guest by Agatha Christie adds uncertainty to who done it and keeps you guessing wrongly until the very end. Performed at CCBC Essex, Robert and Eleanor Romadka College Center, in the Cabaret Theatre. CCBC Essex is located at 7201 Rossville Boulevard, Baltimore, Md. 21237.

Lost in the fog, a stranger seeks refuge in a nearby house, only to find a man shot dead and his wife standing over him with a smoking gun. But the woman's dazed confession is anything but convincing, and the unexpected guest decides to help. Remarkably, the police clues point to a man who died two years previously, but as the ghosts of a past wrong begin to emerge, a tangled web of lies reveals family secrets and chilling motives, where the real murderer turns out to be the greatest mystery of all.
