Deathtrap Theatre Tickets

Deathtrap tickets are one way for you to add some thrill, as well as some laughs, to your evening. The popular theatrical production was originally written by Ira Levin in 1978. Taking a play within a play approach, the story is broken up into two acts on one set. Since its conception, Deathtrap now holds a reputation as being one of the longest-running comedy-thrillers on Broadway. Upon its premiere, which took place in 1978 at the Music Box Theatre in New York City, the play received countless accolades. Among others, it earned four Tony Award nominations, including one for Best Play.

The play also earned Levin an Edgar Award for Best Play, which was his second after his 1968 Edgar Award for Best Novel. When you buy Deathtrap tickets, you’ll be in for a treat, as the plot is full of twists and turns, unexpected events, and ends with a surprise. The story centers around Sidney Bruhl, a struggling playwright who hasn’t written a hit in over 18 years. When he finds out that a former student of his, Clifford Anderson, has written a script that’s guaranteed success, greed takes over. Sidney soon begins to toy with the idea of murdering the young man to steal his script after his wife, Myra, jokes about the notion.

Yet, will Sidney actually follow through with the crime? Who is really the innocent one in this cast of five? Not even the visiting psychic will be able to predict how the events of this comedic thriller end.
