Deathtrap, that is . . .
Rehearsals have begun for Ira Levin's "Deathtrap", the second to last show of Gallery's 2007 season. It's a Thriller, a murder mystery, with many plot twists, turn, and surprises. A cast of characters marked by suspicion, paranoia, narcissism, and jealousy await you!
Directed by gallery veteran Carolyn McCloskey, the show features some faces familiar and new. Chris Benham plays Sidney Bruhl, an established writer of thrillers whose last few plays have been less than smashing hits. Charity Benham plays his high-strung wife, Myra. Jeff Sargent takes the stage as Clifford Anderson, a former student of Sydney's who has written what appears to be a sure-fire hit play. April Wilcox is Helga ten Dorp, a Dutch psychic who has rented the cottage next door to the Bruhl's while she is on vacation writing a book about her experiences. Steve Cox brings to life Porter Milgrim, Sydney's friend and lawyer. I won't share any more about the story, since I would HATE to ruin the surprises that are in store for you!
Check back often for updates on the progress of the show as we work it toward production.
"Deathtrap" opens on October 19th, and runs through November 10.
Put it on your calendar, and prepare to join us for laughs, gasps, and murder most foul . . .
