New York, 1966 – In this exciting new take on Frederick Knott’s suspenseful drama, a young blind woman is manipulated by ruthless con men as they search for a mysterious doll. Trapped in her basement apartment, she learns that her blindness can be her best defense if she can only Wait Until Dark. The original Broadway production starred Lee Remick and ran for 373 performances. The New York Post called the play “a first-rate shocker.”

This is an extremely talky play with a host of transparent plot maneuverings, and success depends a lot on the slow, palpable ratcheting up of tension and menace. But director Kenneth Rogers hasn’t managed these well, and the pacing is ponderous.
