“Strictly Murder” presented by Hampton Theatre Company

“Strictly Murder” by Brian Clemens is set in 1939 in Provence, France, where an English couple, Peter and Suzy, are living in idyllic isolation, far from the rumblings of the coming world war. Their peace is shattered when Suzy discovers she’s been betrayed: Peter is not the man he claims to be, and in fact may be a ruthless killer on the run. When a Scotland Yard detective named Ross arrives, events become even more complicated and frightening. Lies, subterfuge and murder make this fast-paced thriller a dark and disturbing roller coaster of bluff … and double bluff.

Two talkbacks with the cast will be offered to ticketholders immediately following the March 15 and March 22 Friday-evening performances.
