Samuel French Ltd.

Samuel French Ltd. is the UK sister company of Samuel French Inc. The company publishes stage plays for the UK market, mostly acting editions, serves as licensing agent for performance rights. They have published several Agatha Christie stage plays and made them available to be licenced for performance. Some of these plays are long lost plays which have been largely forgotten since their first performance in the 1930s. Others are unpublished and had not been performed in Christie's life time. Such plays came to light through through the efforts of Julius Green who had been given access to the Agatha Christie archives to research for his book Agatha Christie: A Life in the Theatre.
