    Abstract

    This theatre review addresses the question of the law and male hierarchy in this courtroom drama adaptation to Agatha Christie’s novel. This recent play has been termed a ‘revival’ of Christie’s work; thus, making sense of some of the embedded cultural norms presented in the story is of fundamental interest for those seeking to grapple with socio-legal concerns reflected in the relationship between law and society.
