Witness for the Prosecution by Agatha Christie Tickets

I don’t think any play will ever be better in my eyes than The Mousetrap, but this is definitely one of the best and unique theatre experiences I’ve ever had. The actors were all effortlessly on point, and the story was carried with great respect worthy of an Agatha Christie work. There’s a sense of graveness from the opening scene. It isn’t right to compare it with the more famous Mousetrap because they are two different kinds of experience, I enjoyed both for different reasons, but you still have to keep the secret of the ending!

Great show but if you're sitting upstairs it's a bit tough to understand the dialogues especially if the actors are facing the other way - would have see it if only a place was available on the same level as the stage if I had known. So book the right seats to enjoy the play better! Well acted and full of suspense if you haven't read the book!

Suspence and twists all along Highly entertaining Kept us talking for hours afterwards

Great performance everyone was sat on edge of seat until the end! Great the jury is members of the public so ending could be different on different nights

Brilliant, very convincing actors, superb setting

cast were brillant and we enjoyed the perfromance

Would have been helpful if we had known that the stalls had a limited view. Otherwise we enjoyed it very much.

I am slightly hearing impaired, however even someone with canine hearing would trouble following the dialog of this production. If the cast was all miked, the tech staff are at fault. If not, most of the primary cast should improve their voice projection and enunciation.

Excellent show ; thoroughly enjoyable . Great cast . The venue of County Hall was perfect .

A perfect setting for this excellent courtroom drama, which could be a genuine re-enactment!

Didn’t think an Agatha Christie whodunnit could be brought to the stage. I was wrong. Brilliant production for our entire party ranging in age from 76 years to 14. Go see it you won’t be disappointed.

The actor charged with murder was a bit wooden initially but warmed up. Barristers and femme fatale were the stars of the show.

Wonderful and creative show. The direction was excellent and kept a court room drama exciting and gripping. The acting, costumes and lighting were wonderful and it was performed in an ideal setting, which made you feel like you were in a courtroom yourself.

Two criticisms: i) The "hubbub" sound effects were good, as they ended when the acting began, but other sound effects and music were imposed on top of the acting. The idea was to contribute to the atmosphere, but the result was very distracting. ii) The African actors/extras were out of place, and "took me out" of the scene and period. If the play was about Zulus, it would be a joke to use English or Japanese actors. Using black people to play white people is just as tedious!

Great venue for a murder mystery that relied on the twists and turns of the legal system for a resolution.

Hi one suggestion, I had taken pretty expensive seats, that is the forst seat A4, but honestly the view/experience from that seat wasn't good. Please either not assign these seata to anymore or charge way less for them

The action takes place in real court. That is awesome!

Very well done show. Seating was excellent - most comfortable. A pity they sold food during the intermission as then some people crunched through the second half.

Good plot two unexpected twists enjoyable evening

Excellent acting by the Lawyer for Defence

This was a gripping play. The venue was just right for the story. If you have any mobility issues definitely stick with stalls. The upstairs galleries are steep and narrow to get to.

all was great - just the part of Mrs Vole: she's an outstanding actress, but really really has to work on her German accent: it wasn't German at all - German is my first language & grew up bilingual with English. She sounded eastern europeen e.g. polish or croatian or so. She's such a good actress, if she puts her mind to it she will improve it very quickly

Typically Agatha Christie - so very written. Performance was excellent although hearing the actors was a little difficult at times. Staging was 10 out of 10, the venue added to the staging. Balcony seats were very uncomfortable, a cushion would fix that though. All in all, well worth it.

When it says the seat had restricted view, it’s true

Fantastic atmospheric show, feels like it’s completely real. Great historic setting. Not many seats in bar area. Other than that, best show in town

Great show....in true Christie fashion, a twist at the end. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Great setting for this play. I was in seat C43 gallery. I couldn't see the witness box. But not a problem as sound was good. My seat was only £14.50. Absolutely no complaints! I lost my scarf.....someone handed it in. So a great day all round 😁

It's was an awesome show, great acting, smooth stage management and set changes. Really great.

The setting and set changes were good but the play had to many modern touches which wouldn't be around in the forties or fifties when this play (book) was first written. Also to many comedic moments. After all, it is about a murder.

I read the book a long time ago, so I had a general knowledge of the plot, but even with that I had a few surprises! The actors were all very good, the stage is strickingly on point, ant to top it all, very comfy! Worth every penny!

Lovely venue - perfect for courtroom drama and comfy seats (stalls) and airy atmosphere. Excellent acting, engaging plot and brilliant twist at the end. The only slight annoyance was Vole’s wife’s accent which veered from South African to Indian despite her being portrayed as German but a minor point in an otherwise excellent performance by all the actors.

The acting was excellent. By the interval there were at least 3 ideas forming about what the ending might be so plenty to discuss. Scene changes were excellent too and very quickly done.

Fantastic script, wonderful acting, amazing location.

Fitting the play into a "real, old" room and having the stage integrated in the audince was an interesting experience. Well done.

Full of Suspense and twists

Good, although we had restricted view and there are pillars but we could see most of the show. Given this is a courtroom drama it's more about the dialogue anyway so it didn't spoil it. Some of the speech was very quiet so could do with better audio. However would recommend, was worth the money (cheap seats!).

Very good show with a twist at the end. Excellent acting and stage effects. Picked up speed all the way through not a boring moment. Good atmosphere changes in every scene. Altogether a good time had.

Courtroom drama with a twist.The LCC building is iconic for those of a certain age,seating in gallery was restricted view but did not ruin entertainment,would recommend to all that like a whodunnit.

It's Agatha Christie at her finest and that says it all. The theatre set-up is very fortunate as the seats are laid out as they would be in a real courtroom. The actors would enter from between the audience's seats and that integrates the spectators into the sow. Nice touch with the jury!

Well organised theatre staff, great location and great script and cast. Thank

The set was excellent and really drew you into the thrilling story. The acting was excellent and the stage management a joy to watch

Loved the show, loved being able to take drinks from the bar into the theatre, and loved the ability to pre-order drinks for the break. Only one complaint- it was HOT and humid. No ventilation. Loved watching the great performance, but had to wipe sweat out of my eyes a lot.

Totally captivated from start to finish in this fine, fine production. I think Agatha Christie herself would have delighted in the setting. Loved being part of the court proceedings which was achieved by actors very skillfully addressing and including the audience from time to time. Am recommending to friends and family as a definite must see!

This was a very different production and was set up dramatically from the start. Really, really entertaining. I would definitely recommend

I like not to think while watching Agatha Christie stories. I just let the pieces of new information flow fluently completing the whole picture of puzzle. This show was exactly like that. Fluent, interesting, no weak places. The story kept my attention 100% from the begining to the end over two hours. The story had twists in it so that I ended up with my mouth open. Watching Agatha Christie stories (played by professionals) can never be a disappointment.

As a proven theatre goer this was something very different. Acting and storyline were fantastic. Beautiful setting and building. Would recommend to all without hesitation.

loved the show. the acting was superb. definitely one to recommend . storyline great

Loved this play! The characters were so believable in looks and demeanour,

A great play with very talented cast. Interesting theatre. Had a great evening.

My experience of the show was ruined by the obstructed view from the gallery.

Excellent play, fantastic setting County Hall was ideal as it had a real courtroom and added to the atmosphere.

The Actor who played Leonard Vole was a bit weak, and at times inaudible. Christine Vole's acting was a bit over the top. Otherwise a pleasant enough play, good use of the County Hall Chamber as a setting. Not a good idea to sit in the gallery any further back the row B, you're unlikely to see much of the action.

A once in a lifetime opportunity to see such a good show in this great setti g

Perfect setting for this courtroom drama. All actors brilliant with faultless delivery of this tremendous Agatha Christie plot. If you go to this show try to get seats opposite the judge's chair for best view of all the action.

Excellent all round show. Brilliantly performed and setting in court great. Lovely building for the show to take place.
