Review: DIAL M FOR MURDER is a Thrilling Good Time at the MILWAUKEE REPERTORY THEATER
by Kelsey Lawler - Nov 20, 2023


What did our critic think of DIAL M FOR MURDER at MILWAUKEE REPERTORY THEATER?

Under the direction of Laura Braza, this updated take on Frederick Knott’s 1952 original and Hitchcock’s 1954 film stays true to the source with some refreshing updates. But blackmail and revenge, passion and plot twists all remain in this thrilling piece of theater.
