'Deathtrap' at Two Planks Theater Company - My Review

‘Deathtrap’ is a scary comedic thriller by Ira Levin that had a long run on Broadway. It is the show that opens the second full season of the Monroe CT-based theatrical group called Two Planks Theater Company. A good choice for the Halloween season when theatergoers expect to be frightened.

Two Planks Theater Company (TPTC) is named for the boards that fourteenth century troubadours would lay over their wagons to create the stages on which they brought their stories to life. David and Susan Halliwell founded the group decades ago and it has brought stories to life in various locations throughout southern CT. This summer they presented ‘Hairspray’ and a terrific ‘Avenue Q’ at Wolfe Park in Monroe, but with an appropriate chill in the air, they return to an indoor venue. The United Methodist Church of Monroe, a beautiful church in a residential neighborhood, is where this production is staged.
