“Sidney recognises the script immediately as a sure fire hit and his ticket back to Broadway success. The only issue is, does Clifford want to share the credit and what will Sidney do if he doesn’t?
"Holding the record for the longest -running comedy-thriller on Broadway and nominated for four Tony awards including Best Play, Deathtrap will keep you on the edge of your seats. Full of twists and turns, shocks and surprises, thrills and laughter- you will be holding your breath until the very end.
"Please note that this play, directed by by Ira Levin, is not suitable for children under the age of 12.”
