Intent to Murder

Middlesbrough Theatre presents the Bruce James production of Intent to Murder by Leslie Sands

PRIOR TO NATIONAL TOUR

Within minutes of the opening of this gripping thriller, we are plunged into the middle of an explosive situation.

Janet Preston, a well-known authoress who lives alone in a remote cottage on the Yorkshire Moors, has killed her husband, a complete rogue and criminal on the run. Before she can get rid of the body, however, she is confronted by his accomplice George, who blackmails her into agreeing to pass him off as the dead man until such time as he can make a getaway.

The events that follow are full of excitement and the unexpected denouement skilfully reconciles the audience's sympathies and sense of involvement with a demand for justice.

Leslie Sands had a distinguished career in the theatre and on television as an actor, playwright and screenwriter. He became well-known to television audiences in the 1960s as Sergeant Cluff. This rare revival of his classic suspense thriller will keep audiences on the edge of their seats as the plot twists and turns towards its unexpected climax.
