Ten strangers are summoned to remote Soldier Island. All that the guests have in common are past deeds they’re unwilling to reveal and a secret that will seal their fate. For each has been marked for murder. As the weather turns and the group is cut off from the mainland, the tension mounts as one by one they are brutally murdered in accordance with the lines of a sinister nursery rhyme.
*Special Note: We will be performing the play with the “1939 ending.”

CHARACTER BREAKDOWN:

• ROGERS – A competent, middle-aged manservant. Quick and deft. Some may describe him as shifty.
• MRS. ROGERS – Married to Rogers. A housemaid. Nervous and easily frightened.
• FRED NARACOTT – A boatman who ferries the guests onto the island, as well as supplies.
• VERA CLAYTHORNE – Attractive young woman in her first job as a secretary (a former governess), outwardly charming but hiding significant anxiety.
• PHILIP LOMBARD – Charming, cunning, a bit of a rogue, former military and mercenary.
• ANTHONY MARSTON – A rich, reckless, and remorseless young man. Lives hard and fast.
• WILLIAM BLORE – A former police detective. Authoritative, but often misguided.
• GEN. MCKENZIE – An elderly General who is gentle and worn. Grieved and pained by the loss of his wife. He is wrestling with his own demons – and losing.
• EMILY BRENT – A middle-aged woman. Disagreeable, self-righteous, devotedly religious.
• SIR LAWRENCE WARGRAVE – A retired judge. Commanding and sharp-witted, used to being in charge, he quickly becomes the leader of the guests.
