SYNOPSIS FOR *DEATH TRAP*:

In this classic comedic thriller, a washed-up playwright is dying to rise
to the top once more.  A diabolical solution presents itself in the form of
one of his graduate students whose script promises to deliver.
*DEATHTRAP* provides
an abundance of twists and turns and offers hilariously sudden shocks for
audiences who will be spellbound until the very last moment.  This
not-to-be-missed play is the granddaddy of well-written thrillers.

CHARACTERS:

Sidney Bruhl:  50ish, polished, dashing, devious, clever ... thinks he's
the smartest man in the room and wants people to know it; is "on stage"
even when at home.

Clifford Anderson:  18-30s, a student; very attractive, boyish and handsome
at the same time; physically fit.  He is clever; know's HE's the smartest
man in the room and can bide his tine to display it.  Covers this with
innocence, affection and naïveté.

Myra Bruhl:  40-60, sophisticated, upper-class, but embraces the country
life; innocent, sweet, caring, emotional, nervous, even skittish,
supportive of Sydney's career and moods, but grows some backbone when he
crosses the line.

Helga ten Dorp:  Psychic.  Any age.  Wild, individual Gypsy-like; in and
out of her world and this world; knows she's a celebrity and buys into the
show of her gift; has a Dutch/German accent; is disarming and brave when
faced with pain and violence.

Porter Pilgrim:  Professional, solid, observant.
