Performance where a participant from the audience through interactions with the artist was transformed to Agatha Christie.

The project is based on the famous mystery novel Murder on the Orient Express written by Agatha Christie whilst staying at the Grand Hotel, Folkestone, in the 1930's. Set within Christie's bedroom, a spoken word and musical performance took place in the pavilion with the help of local performers.
The work also aims to connect aspects of Christie's life with the 1980's Russian rock band, Agatha Christie, resulting in a hybrid reincarnation of both the author and the band named after her.
