Warkworth Theatre Group will present Spygame by English playwright Bettine Manktelow at the Warkworth Town Hall from May 3.
The comedy-thriller concerns a group of complete strangers who are brought together in an English country house on the promise of possible selection to appear in a new reality TV show.
The would-be “spies” hope to reap monetary rewards and stardom if they make the cut.
But something sinister is afoot.
When one of their number disappears, the remaining guests fear danger may lurk just around the corner.
Why were they chosen? Why can’t they leave? Why all the secrecy? Will they get out alive?
The play is directed by John Burton, who previously directed Bonking James Bond for Warkworth Theatre Group last November.
John says he loves the play’s black comedy and its relatively large cast, which allows a broad range of actors to show off their talents.
Spygame runs from May 3-5 at the Warkworth Town Hall. Tickets $20. Available from Mahurangi Matters, Gull Matakana, Harts Pharmacy and wwtheatre.co.nz.
