The exhibition tracks Christie’s life, travels and creative process across five thematic environments: The Country House, The Dispensary, The Train, The Dig and The Theatre. Visitors can view never-before-seen personal items, notebooks and letters from the Christie Archive Trust including her personal 1937 Remington typewriter, original plotting notebooks and her 1917 pharmaceutical exam notes.
