Two strangers. One conversation. The perfect murder.
A seemingly innocent conversation soon turns into a nightmarish and dangerous reality in this gripping thriller, written by Craig Warner and based on Alfred Hitchcock's iconic film (in turn based on Patricia Highsmith's acclaimed novel). Sets off on a UK tour in 2027, book your seat aboard this fantastic production directed by Roxana Sibert as it pulls into town.
Guy Haines meets Charles Bruno on a train, and the two men strike up a conversation. Haines confides in his fellow traveler that he desperately wants to divorce his unfaithful wife, Miriam, while Bruno returns the confidence by telling Charles of his desire to get rid of his father, who is sitting on top of a rather large fortune. Bruno then proposes a scheme that could solve both their problems - the two should 'swap murders', with Bruno killing Miriam and Charles murdering Bruno's father. This plan would be the perfect crime, because the police would never link either man to their respective crimes because of a complete lack of motive.
Thinking it is no more than a grisly joke, Charles thinks no more about it. That is, until he returns home one day to discover that Bruno has killed Miriam and is keen for Charles to honour their agreement...
