The play is set in the London home of a wealthy couple, former professional tennis player Tony Wendice and his wife, Margot. Tony learns that Margot has had an affair with American crime writer Max Halliday and, hell-bent on revenge and determined to inherit her fortune, he blackmails an old acquaintance into murdering her.

But there is no such thing as the perfect crime, and despite Tony’s meticulous planning, things do not go according to plan.

Full of plot twists and hitches and offering laughs as well as thrills, this play is inspired by Alfred Hitchcock’s classic 1954 film of the same name, which starred Grace Kelly and Ray Milland.
