The Musical search cue — “아가사 뮤지컬”
Summary
Inspired by Agatha Christie’s 1926 disappearance, this psychological mystery blurs reality and fiction as the writer confronts authorship, identity, and buried memories.
Origin & Development
2013, written by Ko Sun-woong with music by Choi Jeong-yoon, produced by Asia Bridge Contents as part of the "Kim Soo-ro Project," premiered at Dongguk University Lee Hae-rang Arts Theater in Seoul. The musical blends biographical speculation with a fictionalized detective structure, using tango rhythms, dual timelines, and mirrored staging to explore the author’s missing eleven days and the darker half of her imagination.
Partial Synopsis
At age 36, Agatha Christie vanishes for eleven days, returning with no memory of the missing period. Decades later, a letter signed “R” forces her to confront the truth she has avoided, triggering a journey back into fractured memories, unfinished manuscripts, and the figure of Roy, a seductive alter ego born from resentment and despair. As Agatha revisits the nightmarish maze of her disappearance, reality and fiction overlap, revealing that the mystery she must solve is herself. The musical frames the story like a locked-room detective novel, but its core is psychological rather than criminal.
