About Travels with Agatha Christie and Sir David Suchet LIVE
Join Sir David Suchet CBE, the legendary actor who brought Hercule Poirot to life on screen for over 25 years, for an extraordinary evening of storytelling, insight, and unseen archive as he shares his personal pilgrimage in the footsteps of Dame Agatha Christie.
Based on the acclaimed Channel 4 series of the same name, this brand-new live show sees Sir David retrace the true story behind Christie’s 1920s voyage across the globe — a grand tour that spanned Canada, Hawaii, South Africa, New Zealand and Australia. Far from a typical travelogue, the journey peels back the curtain on the inspirations, relationships and real-life encounters that shaped the Queen of Crime’s life and writing.
Featuring exclusive footage and never-before-seen photography from the series, this captivating evening offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at a deeply personal and revealing chapter in Christie’s life told through the eyes of the actor who knows her work more intimately than most.
Warm, intelligent, and full of wonder, this is for curious minds and Christie devotees alike, that spans continents, stories, and time.
