Nudity, adult language, violence and sexual situations. 

"A big, bold adventure!" raved London's Evening Standard when the inimitable Terry Johnson premiered his fascinating new play that's part theatre, part cinema. What was the dark secret that caused the great Alfred Hitchcock to obsess over beautiful blondes in jeopardy? At a villa in the Greek isles, a British professor and his young assistant sift through the clues (and the reels of disintegrating celluloid). As the cinematic mystery cuts back and forth between the Greek isles and 1959 Hollywood during the filming of that unforgettable shower scene, illusion and reality collide with surprising results.

This fascinating jigsaw puzzle of a play is for mature theatre-goers who will be caught up in the mystery-and in the complex relationship between the man and woman who unravel it.
