The Sacred Flame

The Sacred Flame

Synopsis

What happened on the night the young Great War hero, Maurice Tabret, died at home in his bed?  His doctor says he died from natural causes, but his nurse points a finger of suspicion at his beautiful wife, Stella... 

Putting a twist on the classic murder mystery, this part thriller, part love story is by the enduringly popular playwright and novelist, W. Somerset Maugham, whose brilliance is discovered afresh in this vivid new production. This tense and graceful play is a fascinating exploration of love, devotion and family.

 

There will be a post-show talk with live subtitling.
