Accomplice

Rupert Holmes’ Accomplice is a labyrinthine exploration of the “two-act thriller” genre. The show is a dizzying web of assassination attempts as characters’ identities are revealed, cast off, and again proven to be elaborate, venomous facades. Holmes pays brilliant homage to classic four-actor thrillers such as J. B. Priestly's "An Inspector Calls" and Agatha Christie’s legendary "Mousetrap," allowing the plot twists to contort themselves through the fourth wall and swirl the audience’s perception of reality. A metatheatrical masterpiece riddled with black comedy and sharp humor, Accomplice is sure to be an evening of suspicion and intrigue as victims are murdered, resurrected, and killed again, and the murderers seem to be multiplying…
