People of Note - Ashley Dowds

Loading player...
An exciting Agatha Christie thriller has just opened at Theatre on the Bay. It’s called Black Coffee and, as always with Agatha Christie, you’ll be guessing right to the end with all the usual red herrings. The play is directed by Alan Swerdlow with Allan Committee as Hercule Poirot and Ashley Dowds is Captain Hastings. I spoke to Ashley on People of Note this week to find out more about this play and its large cast, and we were careful not to give anything away.
