THE STORY OF DIAL M FOR MURDER
CAST AND CREATIVE
In London, 1952, the wealthy Margot Wendice has convinced her husband, Tony, to give up playing tennis to spend more time with her. However, he has discovered that while he was on a tennis tour in the United States several years ago, Margot had an affair with an American murder mystery writer named Max Halliday. Because he wants revenge as well as her money, Tony meticulously plans Margot’s murder. But when Margot refuses to play the part of the victim, things go much differently than planned. Inspired by this classic play, Alfred Hitchcock adapted it into the famous movie we all know and love today.
Based on the Classic Play by Frederick Knott
Music: Brian Feinstein
Directed by: Peter Flynn
Starring: Cat McAllister and Ed Dixon
Produced at the Engeman Theatre, New York
“Tautly directed by Peter Flynn, it makes for an enjoyably gripping evening of theater. Even the music that plays during suspenseful moments, original music by Brian Feinstein, a device that often registers onstage as jarring and hokey these days, adds a delicious shiver.”
- Aileen Jacobsen (NY Times critic)
