Agatha Christie’s : Go Back For Murder
2025-05-02 19:00 - 21:30, 2025-05-03 14:00 - 16:30, 2025-05-03 19:00 - 21:30 | Cochrane Ranchehouse, 101 Ranchehouse Road, Cochrane, Alberta
After receiving a letter from beyond the grave, Carla Crale believes her mother, who died in prison, was wrongly convicted of her father’s murder. In a passionate attempt to clear her name, she persuades those present on the day of her father’s death to return to the scene of the crime and ‘go back’ 15 years to recount their version of events.
An unusual take on the traditional murder mystery, the action of the play slips seamlessly from past to present, examining the danger of relying on personal testimony warped by time, prejudice and perception. By studying each suspect’s testimony, and the various inconsistencies between them, the drama arrives at a disturbing and terrible truth.

They are raising funds to build infrastructure to safely house and care for the animals, including a quarantine barn, vetting space, more shelters, more waterers, training arena and equipment.
