An evening of sheer terror is guaranteed when a blind woman tries to outwit three intruders in a new production of the murder mystery Wait Until Dark, which takes to the stage at the Maddermarket in Norwich.
The stage thriller was written by English playwright Frederick Knott, best-known as the author of Dial M For Murder, which was turned into a Hollywood blockbuster by Alfred Hitchcock.
A blind housewife becomes the target of three thugs who are looking for heroin hidden in a doll her husband transported from Canada, as a favour to a woman who has since been murdered.
More murder and mayhem follows – but when her apartment is plunged into total darkness it is the blind woman who holds all the cards.
Wait Until Dark runs until August 30, with performances nightly at 7.30pm, plus a matinee at 2.30pm on August 24.
Tickets cost £12, £10 and £8 and can be bought in person from the box office at the
Maddermarket in St John's Alley, Norwich, or by calling the box office on 01603 620917.
