TORONTO, ON…Stage Centre Productions is pleased to announce that it is presenting the suspense-filled Wait Until Dark. A masterfully constructed thriller that moves from one moment of suspense to another as it builds toward an electrifying, breath-stopping final scene. A tense thriller in which a blind girl, alone in a Greenwich Village apartment, is stalked by vicious drug smugglers. A startling shocker even as the curtain falls.
Housewife Susy is alone in her apartment when she is confronted by a trio of thugs looking for their stash of heroin hidden in a doll, which Susy’s husband Sam has unwittingly transported from Canada back to New York City. In a heart-stopping finale played out in complete darkness, the young blind woman turns the tables on her would be attackers.
Joining director/designer L. Garth Allen are repertory company members Jeff Angus as Policeman #1, Michael Chodos as Sgt. Carlino, Paul Love as Mike Talman, Jeff Angus as Policeman #2, Sylvester Pilgrim as Policeman #1, Lawrence Stevenson as Sam Hendrix, Sara Van Buskirk as Susy Hendrix and Will van der Zyl as Harry Roat Jr.
