A CLASSIC murder mystery is to have a week-long stage run.

The Agatha Christie thriller The Hollow is being staged in the tiny City Theatre, in Back Silver Street, Durham City from Sunday, June 28 to Saturday, July 4.

The whodunnit is the latest offering from the Durham Dramatic Society, an amateur group which stages five productions in the city each year, and is produced by Theresa Mulkerrin.

Shows are at 7.30pm each night, with a 2.30pm matinee on Sunday only.

Tickets are £6, available from Durham’s Tourist Information Centre on 0191-384 7641.
