See You In Court

Agatha Christie's Witness for the Prosecution is a definitive and long-standing part of immersive theatre. Witness for the Prosecution began as a short story in 1925 and then became a successful stage play after premiering on 28 October 1953 at the Winter Garden Theatre, produced by Sir Peter Saunders. Christie’s gripping drama has been performed all over the world, from London's West End to Broadway, and has been a hit for years in both professional and amateur productions.

The latest revival of Witness for the Prosecution took place in October 2017, featuring London County Hall’s distinctive courtroom staging and receiving praise from critics. Unfortunately, the production was halted in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the UK but resumed in September 2021. This unique site-specific rendition is housed within the grand chamber of London County Hall, offering an immersive experience for the jury. Since it began, Witness for the Prosecution tickets have been in high demand, so book now!
