Stage thriller SLEUTH to tour from January 2024

Anthony Shaffer’s masterpiece, directed by the award-winning Rachel Kavanaugh, Sleuth will take to the stage in 2024 with Todd Boyce (Coronation Street, ITV) and Neil McDermott (EastEnders, BBC) set to star.

This dark psychological ‘thriller about thrillers’ makes for an intriguing study of human conflict, jealousy, and manipulation. Proving to be far more than a ‘whodunnit’, it promises to baffle even the most proficient sleuth!

Sleuth is one of the greatest ever stage thrillers and played for a total of 12 years in both London and New York, winning the Tony Award for Best Play. It also became the inspiration for the hugely successful film starring Laurence Olivier and Michael Caine. From next year, audiences up and down the UK will get the chance to see this award-winning play, starting at Theatre Royal Windsor from 31 January 2024, touring into the spring.

Following Windsor, the production will visit Bath, Torquay, York, Eastbourne, Bradford, Southend, Malvern, Cheltenham, and Guildford.

A young man arrives at the impressive home of a famous mystery writer, only to be unwittingly drawn into a tangled web of intrigue and gamesmanship, where nothing is quite as it seems...

The production is designed by Julie Godfrey, with lighting by Tim Oliver, and sound by Andy Graham.
