Although the evidence appears to be overwhelming in the strangulation murder of a blackmailer, Miss Jane Marples (Dame Margaret Rutherfords) sole "not guilty" vote hangs the jury 11-1. She becomes convinced that the real murderer is a member of a local theatrical troupe, so she joins them in order to gather information. The clues lead back many years to a single disastrously unsuccessful 1951 performance of a dreadful play written by the groups hammy director, H. Driffold Cosgood (Ron Moody). Although at that time, several of the current cast members were only children, more murders follow before Miss Marple ultimately exposes the killer.
After being the only holdout in a jury that was ready to convict a man of killing his fellow lodger, Mrs. McGuinty, Miss Jane Marple (Dame Margaret Rutherford) sets out to find the real killer. She finds that the dead woman had a particular interest in a theater company, the Cosgood Players, run by H. Driffold Cosgood (Ron Moody). She no sooner manages to get an unpaid position with the company than one of the actors, George Rowton (Maurice Good), is poisoned and dies minutes before a performance. Miss Marple is certain that its the same person responsible for both murders and when another member of the company is killed, Miss Marple is convinced that it she who was the intended victim.
