The Yellow Iris
by Agatha Christie
“Yellow Iris” was first presented on the BBC National Program in 1937. The main part of the story takes place in a London restaurant. The play is unusual in that the producer interspersed the action with the performances of the cabaret artists who were supposedly on the stage at the restaurant during the murder. It features the famous Belgian Inspector Hercule Poirot, one of Christie’s audiences’ favorite detectives.
The past comes to haunt dinner guests during a party held on the 1-year anniversary of a murder. Fear is the centerpiece of a table decorated with yellow iris. Detective Poirot is on the scene, but can he find a killer among the guests before another murder is served?
