Twice adapted into films starring Michael Caine, Anthony Shaffer's play concerns a mystery writer who schemes to trick and befuddle his wife's lover. Set in the manor house of author Andrew Wyke, the home reflects his obsession with the inventions and deceptions of fiction and his fascination with games. Wyke lures Milo Tindle to the house and convinces him to stage a robbery, setting off a chain of events that will leave you trying to figure out where Wyke's imagination ends and reality begins. This production is directed by Jim Petosa, Artistic Director of the Olney Theatre Center. Learn More

Saddled with a devastating physical deformity, John Merrick was plucked from a 19th century London freak show to be protected and studied in a hospital in 1884. Surprisingly, Merrick became a mover in London’s high society. Winner of the Tony Award for Best Play, The Elephant Man is a gripping drama that explores social values and human worth.
