The European premiere of Ken Ludwig’s new stage adaptation of Agatha Christie’s classic whodunit Death on the Nile is touring the UK in 2025 and 2026.

The tour starts at The Lowry theatre in Salford in September 2025, before touring to London Richmond, Milton Keynes, Bath, Northampton, Truro, Torquay, Cardiff, Guildford, Marlow, and Canterbury.

The production reunites director Lucy Bailey (Witness for the Prosecution), writer Ken Ludwig (Crazy For You) and producers Fiery Angel (War Horse), following their successful productions of Christie’s And Then There Were None and Murder on the Orient Express.

Death on the Nile is set on board a luxurious cruise under the heat of the Egyptian sun. A couple’s idyllic honeymoon is cut short by a brutal murder, and as secrets that have been buried in the sands of time finally resurface, can the world-famous detective Hercule Poirot untangle the web of lies and solve another crime?

James Prichard of Agatha Christie Limited said in a statement: “With a hugely successful tour of Murder on the Orient Express still delighting UK audiences, we are thrilled to be partnering once again with Lucy Bailey, Ken Ludwig and the team at Fiery Angel to bring another of my great grandmother’s most celebrated stories to UK stages.”
