Death on the Nile at the Everyman Theatre
Tuesday 3 - Saturday 7 February 2026
Bitter rivals. Buried secrets. A love to die for.
A brand-new stage adaptation of an Agatha Christie classic sails into Cheltenham as Death on the Nile arrives at the Everyman Theatre for a thrilling night at the theatre.
Set on board a luxurious cruise under the blazing Egyptian sun, an idyllic honeymoon is shattered by a brutal murder. As long-buried secrets rise to the surface, the world-famous detective Hercule Poirot must untangle a dangerous web of lies to uncover the truth.
Following the sell-out tour of Murder on the Orient Express, this gripping production reunites writer Ken Ludwig, director Lucy Bailey and Fiery Angel, bringing Christie’s iconic mystery vividly to life on stage.
Starring as Poirot is Mark Hadfield, joined by Glynis Barber and Bob Barrett, this lavish and suspense-filled production promises a tense and absorbing evening. Praised as “gorgeously staged” and “a lush, satisfying night out”, it is a must for fans of classic whodunnits and those searching for standout nights out in Cheltenham.
A compelling choice for anyone looking for things to do in Cheltenham and a memorable night at the theatre.
