Deadly Nightcap rampant in Stone Cross this April
Murder and mystery abound in this ingenious play, with more than its fair share of blind alleys. Initially the plot seems to follow a familiar pattern, a greedy husband plotting to kill his wife. Jack Radford tries to convince his wife that she is on the verge of a nervous breakdown in order to make it seem like her impending death is a suicide. His plans are thwarted and he, not his wife, ends up dead. But how and by whom? Even though the investigation led by Cliff Jordan concludes Jack was murdered by a prowler, there are so many possible suspects and motives that truth eludes everyone until the shocking denouement. Performances at 7.30pm with Saturday matinee at 2.30pm. Tickets £9 adults and £7.50 for student/children. Bookings can be made on 01323 767816 or www.havenplayers.com.
