Sleuth

Watch a first look video of SLEUTH at Guthrie Theater, the Tony Award-winning play by Anthony Shaffer running through May 10, 2026.

A highlight of enjoying any mystery is trying to figure out the endgame before you reach it to see if your powers of perception are good enough to beat the detective to the punch. Well, take that plan and throw it in the nearest garbage because Sleuth, the Guthrie’s newest production, is a mystery that will have you guessing until the final moment. Even then, you will be wrong.

The Guthrie Theater will present an upcoming production of Sleuth, written by Anthony Shaffer and directed by Kimberly Senior.

Theatre Three in Dallas will present the Tony Award-winning thriller SLEUTH by Anthony Schaffer. Directed by Emily Scott Banks, this psychological mystery explores rivalry and deception.

What did our critic think of SLEUTH at Arts Court Theatre? Ottawa’s Classic Theatre Festival’s second show of the summer is currently underway with its production of Sleuth. Written by Anthony Shaffer, Sleuth was first presented in Britain in early 1970 before transferring to the U.S. later that year.

Victoria Street in Santa Barbara. 

Great Lakes Theater (GLT), Cleveland's Classic Company, commences the second half its 2019-20 season with the ultimate whodunit thriller, Sleuth. The world-class production will be performed in the company's intimate and audience-friendly home at the Hanna Theatre, Playhouse Square, February 14 - March 8, 2020. Great Lakes Theater's Producing Artistic Director, Charles Fee, directs the production.

Anthony Shaffer's Tony Award winning Sleuth is to be adapted by Murphy Ra Entertainment, taking the male role of Milo Tindle and shifting the character to become Bella Lanson, an actress. The swap will create added challenges to the older character of Jack Guest (previously Andrew Wyke) on new levels of gender and patriarchy, on top of the twisty game play the original script is so famous for.

Cortland Repertory Theatre takes audiences on a trip to the Greek Islands, and back to 1970's music, with their next high-energy summer production, the hit musical "Mamma Mia"! Featuring the extremely popular music by the iconic pop group ABBA, the music and lyrics for this show are written by Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus, with some songs with Stig Anderson, and the book is written by Catherine Johnson. 

I have been a huge fan of both Wil Love and Carl Schurr for many years. They are currently both performing in Everyman Theatre's THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST which ends its run Dec. 30, 2018. They have become two patriarchs of the Baltimore theatre scene. Since their meeting at Center Stage in 1971, they have performed, produced, and adapted hundreds of performances both regionally and nationally. Now in their 10th year as Resident Company Members at Everyman Theatre, Wil and Carl have plenty of war stories and advice to share. I connected with these two venerable performances to learn more about their story.
