Deathtrap by Ira Levin is a thrilling two-act play filled with suspense, twists, and dark humor. It premiered in 1978 and became one of Broadway’s most successful plays, known for its clever writing and unexpected plot turns. The story centers on Sidney Bruhl, a once-successful playwright struggling with writer's block and longing for another hit. When a promising young playwright, Clifford Anderson, sends Sidney a script for a suspense thriller titled Deathtrap, Sidney realizes it could be a surefire success. Sidney invites Clifford to his home under the pretense of collaboration, but his true intentions are far more sinister. The plot twists and turns as deception, murder, and betrayal unfold, with the audience never quite sure who to trust. The play masterfully blends elements of mystery and satire, poking fun at the thriller genre.
