From the masterful mind of Stephen King comes a chilling stage adaptation that will have you on the edge of your seat. MISERY, based on King’s iconic novel and adapted by William Goldman, delivers a dark and gripping psychological thriller that explores obsession, captivity, and survival.
When celebrated author Paul Sheldon wakes up in a secluded home after a near-fatal car crash, he’s in the care of his “number one fan,” Annie Wilkes. But admiration quickly spirals into terrifying control, and Paul soon realizes that Annie never intends to let him go.
