DEATHTRAP holds the record for the longest-running comedy-thriller on Broadway, and was nominated for four Tony Awards, including Best Play.  Famous playwright Sidney Bruhl, struggling with a career slump, plots to murder a young writer and steal his promising script. But as suspense builds and loyalties shift, nothing is as it seems. Full of dark humor, unexpected twists, and sharp suspense, Deathtrap is a masterclass in tension and intrigue that will leave you questioning every move.

DEATHTRAP stars Michael Lomenick as Sidney, with Beck Damron, Jeanne Dwan, Aidan Sternberg and BEKA rounding out the cast. It is directed by Christa Retka, with Set Design by Brian Wasserman and Lighting design by Pat Henderson.  Wendy Kaplan and Wayne Mell produce for MadKap Productions.
