Photo Flash: Murder is in the Air with DIAL 'M' for MURDER at the Lonny Chapman Theatre

The Group Rep at the Lonny Chapman Theatre presents Frederick Knott's "Dial "M" for Murder" directed by Bruce Kimmel, produced by Mannette Antill for the Group Rep. In this mystery thriller play that inspired Hitchcock's suspense classic, a cunning man marries a wealthy woman for her money and plans to murder her to get her fortune. He devises a perfect murder, blackmails a criminal and arranges a brilliant alibi. To say more about a twisty and surprising thriller simply wouldn't be sporting, would it?

Dial "M" for Murder had a highly successful run on Broadway.

The play features the talents of Hisato Masuyama Ball (Chicago Japan National Tour, Pacific Overtures Revival tour w/Mako); Doug Haverty (A Dull Pain Turned Sharp GRT, Welcome to Heretofore Hollywood Fringe 2017); Michael Robb (The Real Thing Two Roads Theater, A Slight Ache Upstairs at GRT); Adam Jonas Segaller ("1:00 P.M. Central Standard Time" narrated by George Clooney, Emmy-winning "The Men Who Built America" ); Carrie Schroeder (stars in Nickelodeon's "I am Frankie" premiering Fall 2017, Poe Deaf West Theatre); and Justin Waggle (Urinetown Morgan-Wixson Theatre, South Pacific Glendale Centre Theatre.)

The play features incidental music by Emmy-nominated guitarist composer Grant Geissman a former member of Chuck Mangione's band, who most notable composed the TV theme songs for "Two and a Half Men" and "Mike & Molly."
