Federal Way Community Calendar | Jan. 30 edition

Published 7:00 am Friday, January 30, 2026

Agatha Christie’s “And Then There Were None”: Federal Way’s professional theatre company Centerstage Theatre presents another mystery, opening on Jan. 30 and running through Feb. 22. Ten strangers are summoned to a remote island. None of them know each other, all of them have a dangerous past they need to keep secret, and each of them are now in the carefully laid trap of a murderer. As a storm rages outside, the group becomes completely cut off from the outside world, and the killings begin … one by one, the guests are murdered; the only connecting thread being the lines of a sinister nursery rhyme. Visit centerstagetheatre.com for tickets.
