Sidney Bruhl is determined to publish his next great Broadway thriller when he finds himself out of time, almost out of money but thankfully not without his wits and creativity. A young, aspiring playwright and former student, Clifford, arrives at Bruhl’s delightful Connecticut home for advice on his script which is sure to be a smash hit. 

What might Sidney and his wife, Myra, do to bring this aging playwright’s failing career back to life?

With plot twists, chilling effects and outrageous humor, DEATHTRAP has the distinction of being the longest running comedy-thriller in Broadway history.
