A Murder Is Announced Reviews | Saughtonhall A Murder Is Announced April 14, 2016 | By Hugh Simpson | Reply http://www.alledinburghtheatre.com/a-murder-is- announced-saughtonhall-drama-group-2016-review/ ★★★☆☆ Pleasing Saughtonhall United Reformed Church: Wed 13 – Sat 16 Apr 2016 Review by Hugh Simpson Thoughtful and well staged, Saughtonhall Drama Group’s production of Agatha Christie’s A Murder Is Announced is a solid evening’s entertainment. The local paper in Chipping Cleghorn announces that there will be a murder at the large house occupied by Letitia Blacklock and her gaggle of friends, relatives and lodgers young and old. Although they dismiss it as a prank, sure enough there is soon a death. Fortunately, Jane Marple is staying nearby at her nephew’s vicarage…. Murray Petrie (Inspector Craddock) and Ishbel Shand ( Miss Marple). Photo Sarah Howley The story is a well-worn and effective one, proceeding like clockwork – even if it does occasionally betray its origins as an adapted novel instead of a piece of drama. It does boast rather more talk than action, with a great deal of exposition, and artfully inserted clues both relevant and misleading. This can make it very stiff and stagey. It is to director John Webster’s immense credit that the sections that feature a large cast, with a great deal to say but not much to do, are handled so efficiently. As a result, the production both opens and closes strongly. The same cannot always be said for stretches in the middle where there are conversations between smaller numbers of performers, as the pace slackens notably here. Ishbel Shand’s Miss Marple has less stage time than might be imagined. This is a shame, as here she is far less cuddly than she is frequently portrayed, being closer to the ever-so-slightly self- righteous busybody she surely should be. hearteningly realistic Shand’s performance is hearteningly realistic; this can also be said for Murray Petrie’s wearily sarcastic Inspector Craddock, who is, however, a little too understated at times. Chris Mitchell (Letitia Blacklock), Ruth Gray (Julia Simmons), Judith Petrie (Dora Banner) and Scott Kerr (Patrick Simmons). Photo Sarah Howley Chris Mitchell’s Letitia is a poised, assured and very human central portrayal, while Judith Petrie strikes a suitably puzzled tone as her confused old friend Bunny, who has decidedly seen better days. Scott Kerr, Ruth Gray and Louise Starkey are accomplished as Ms Blacklock’s young houseguests, who all seem so nice – but may of course be more than they appear. Colin Mitchell and Betty Meston play neighbours the Swettenhams effectively, while Mark Kirkbride’s world-weary, down-at-heel police sergeant is a particularly pleasing cameo. Mitzi, the comedy foreign servant of no fixed nationality, has been an insuperable challenge to many performers; not so Gillian McEvoy, who attacks the role with gusto and considerable comic ability, leading to several big laughs. a decidedly camp edge Perhaps the comedic potential of the rest of the script is milked a little at times, lending a decidedly camp edge to some of it that dissipates the tension. However, the tightness of the ensemble always reins things back and keeps events flowing. The fact that tension remained, even for those who were obviously well aware of the ending, shows that the pacing is about right. The cast also overcome a couple of technical glitches – the blackout at one vital early moment is less than perfect, and the accompanying sound effects underwhelming. Otherwise, the technical aspects of the production are sound. Jim Pryde’s solid, well-furnished set is particularly impressive, featuring doors that are integral to the plot and actually work, which is not always the case in productions with far greater resources. This is definitely one of those ‘English’ murders Orwell described; no hint here of gritty Scandi- noir or even any blood to speak of. Instead, everyone is outwardly polite, even apologetic, while inside frustrations about class, money and status seethe – and when done as well as this, it remains quality entertainment.

  • The Miss Marple Model of Psychological Assessment
    THE MISS MARPLE MODEL OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT Carolyn Allen Zeiger ABSTRACT The Agatha Christie detective, Miss Jane Marple, is used as a model for a particular method of doing psychological assessment. The paper demonstrates how this seemingly loose, intuitive, and informal approach is supported by a formal conceptual system. The underlying structure is delineated using concepts and tools from Descriptive Psychology. The model is articulated in terms of its procedural and conceptual features, as well as personal characteristics of the person using it. My husband and I are not television watchers, but one snowy night a couple of years ago, we were stuck at home and turned on the BBC Mystery Series. Thereupon we discovered Miss Marple, Agatha Christie's octogenarian, amateur sleuth, who just happens to show up at the right places and solve murder mysteries. Although we enjoyed all the BBC mysteries, Miss Marple was different. In her cases, I figured Advances in Descriptive Psycholoey, Volume 6, pages 159·183. Editors: Mary Kathleen Roberts and Raymond M. Bergner. Copyright 10 1991 Descriptive Psychology Press. All rights of reproduction in any form reserved. ISBN: 0-9625661·1-X. 159 160 CAROLYN ALLEN ZEIGER out the mysteries. I knew what was going on. I couldn't believe it, because when it was a Sherlock Holmes mystery, I wouldn't get it. The other experience I had with Miss Marple was a strong sense of identification with her. I felt a little foolish about it, but none the less I thought, "I work just like Miss Marple, which is why she makes sense to me!" I had been worrying about not being able to articulate the way I do psychotherapy.

While seeming to adhere to the general conservatism of the genre in the first half of the twentieth century, some of Christie’s texts obliquely defy male dominance through rhetorical strategies aligned with women. A feminist rhetorical approach indicates that one of Christie’s most popular detectives, the elderly Jane Marple, solves crimes by successfully employing the tools of invitational rhetoric and gossip, thereby engaging with a feminist rhetorical agenda in her reliance on alternative rhetorical modes.
