Village Theatre – Mainstage

DIAL M FOR MURDER

ISSAQUAH JAN 21—FEB 23, 2025 | EVERETT MAR 1—23, 2025

Murder has a familiar ring. Tony married his wife for her money, and now he plans to murder her for it. But when his perfect plans go awry, he has to improvise — and now his wife’s former lover Maxine and a wily inspector from Scotland Yard must race against the clock to unravel his schemes. This spine-tingling new adaptation is brimming with more unexpected turns and diabolic plot twists than Hitchcock’s timeless film version. Will Tony get away with it, or will justice be served? You’ll be guessing until the very end of this fast-paced, stylish thriller. Get ready for a criminally good time.

In Dial M for Murder, the phone is part of a complex choreography of deception, where the timing of each call is crucial. The phone becomes a deadly tool in the hands of the mastermind, Tony Wendice.

With the help of the Telecom Museum, DIA has assembled a temporary display at Historic Shell that gives a nod to the play and roots of modern communication technologies, which made possible the development of radio, TV, and computers, in addition to telephones in all shapes and functions. The museum exhibits will take you back to the time of party lines, rotary phones, and switchboards. The displays are interactive with real working vintage phones.
