Vermisst! What Happened to Agatha Christie? (The Missing Days Of Agatha Christie) — Parkbad-Süd, Castrop-Rauxel

One of the most spectacular criminal cases in literary history - and the protagonist is the "Queen of Crime" herself. On 3 December 1926, Agatha Christie vanishes without a trace. While hundreds of volunteers and colleagues, including Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, search across England, her abandoned car suggests tragedy. Yet eleven days later she reappears in perfect health at a luxury hotel, registered under the name of her unfaithful husband's mistress. About this mystery - whether a nervous breakdown or a brilliant act of revenge - she remained silent until her death.

In this gripping play, fact and fiction merge into a feast for the senses, where crime drama meets live music. An atmospheric journey through time blurs the boundaries between creator and creation. Paul Graham Brown's music forms the pulsing heart of the production, turning this evening into an essential, sensory investigation of the truth.

James Edward Lyons (script): The American is a fixture in the theatrical landscape, known for his precise biographical musical evenings (including on Édith Piaf and Janis Joplin). Paul Graham Brown (music): One of the most prolific musical composers in the German-speaking world, known for successes like "Bonnie and Clyde" and "King Kong".
