Murder on the Orient Express is set in 1934 on a luxurious train called the Orient Express, travelling west from Istanbul.
This play requires a relatively large, strong cast. Murder mysteries (or whodunits) are great fun to work on: trying to look innocent when you are guilty, acting guilty to draw suspicion in your direction, always being larger than life.
