SLEUTH! Look who is playing Darlington
January 23, 2008
SLEUTH by Anthony Shaffer is viewed as one of the greatest ever stage thrillers, which ran for a total of 12 years in London and New York, winning the Tony Award for Best Play and inspiring the hugely successful film starring Laurence Olivier and Michael Caine, which has recently been remade starring again Michael Caine. But SLEUTH makes its much anticipated return to the stage this year with the tour stooping at Darlington Civic Theatre from Monday 18 to Saturday 23 February.
Simon MacCorkindale, best known for his role as consultant Harry Harper in the BBC’s Casualty, the well-known hit TV series Falcon Crest and Manimal, and his roles in several major films, including Riddle of the Sands, and Michael Praed, veteran of the television classics Robin of Sherwood and Dynasty, star in this audacious revival of Anthony Shaffer’s masterpiece in which a young man arrives at the impressive home of a famous mystery writer, only to be unwittingly drawn into a tangled web of intrigue and gamesmanship, where nothing is quite what it seems…
This dark psychological ‘thriller about thrillers’ and intriguing study of human conflict, jealousy and manipulation proves to be far more than a ‘whodunit’ and promises to baffle even the most proficient sleuth!
