About NTPA Deaf Theatre
These programs are adapted for actors who are Deaf or hard of hearing. Both Deaf and hearing actors are needed and encouraged to join us for these upcoming programs with an innovative method of combining language to tell stories on stage. Deaf and hearing actors will work together to portray characters in the production with a performance that will be enjoyed by Deaf and hearing audiences alike.
Synopsis
Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the Orient Express in its tracks. The luxurious train is surprisingly full for the time of the year, but by the morning it is one passenger fewer. An American tycoon lies dead in his compartment, stabbed eight times, his door locked from the inside. Isolated and with a killer in their midst, the passengers rely on detective Hercule Poirot to identify the murderer – in case he or she decides to strike again.
