HIADS Present

Hayling Island Amateur Dramatic Society present: Spider's Web by Agatha Christie.

Clarissa is given to daydreaming. "Supposing I were to come down one morning and find a dead body in the library, what should I do?", she says. And, of course, that is exactly what happens.

She discovers the body of Oliver Costello (the boyfriend of her stepdaughter Pippa's mother) in her drawing-room. Then Clarrisa needs to dispose of the body before her husband comes home with an important foreign politician, so she persuades her three houseguests to become accessories and accomplices.

But before they can effectively get rid of the body, an inspector suddenly arrives to investigate the murder. Who called him? Mildred Peake, the house’s jolly-hockey-stick gardener also gets involved in trying to solve the mystery.
