Night Must Fall

by Emlyn Williams

Directed by Ian Guy

Was performed 18th - 22nd September 2012 at The Shed.

Night Must Fall - Mrs Bramson and Dan

Danny has already murdered one woman, and there is little doubt that he will soon murder another – the aged owner of a lonely house in a forest in Essex.

Night Must Fall - Olivia, Mrs Terence, Dora and Hubert

He gradually insinuates himself into her affections in a skilful manner, for Dan is a dashing young assassin, a completely self-centred psychopath with no feelings and a vast imagination, who is perpetually acting, for his own enjoyment, the part of the murderer.

Night Must Fall - Dan and Inspector Belsize

He taunts the old ladies niece and plays a dangerous game of cat and mouse with everyone including the all knowing Inspector out to catch him.

Night Must Fall - Nurse Libby, Dan and Mrs Terence
