Williamston Theatre Starts Off 2026 With DIAL M FOR MURDER
The classic Hitchcock tale hits the Lansing area's professional regional theatre.
Williamston Theatre will kick off 2026 with Dial M for Murder adapted by Jeffrey Hatcher from the original by Frederick Knott.

Do you believe in the perfect murder? When Tony Wendice discovers a love letter meant for his wife, a vengeful obsession takes over. He plots revenge, hires an old friend to do the unthinkable, and sets a meticulous plan in motion — until one mistake sends everything into a spiral. Dial M for Murder is Jeffrey Hatcher's sharp adaptation of a classic suspense thriller that gives the iconic story new life. You may know the story; but seeing it live, just feet from the performers, is a whole new experience. Catch every glance. Every twist. Every gasp. Contains mature content.
