The Business of Murder by Richard Harris
16 to 21 March 2026
Evenings at 7:45pm.
2:30pm matinee on Saturday 21 March.
A psychological thriller about revenge.
The play revolves around three characters: Dee, a successful television playwright; Hallet, a detective superintendent; and Stone, a humourless, prissy man. The characters find themselves together in a flat, enticed there for different reasons. But nothing is as it seems, and as the plot twists and turns the motive of their host Stone gradually becomes clear. They are all, it would seem, in the same business…. The Business of Murder.
