Actors Co-op Theatre Company (Ovation Award-Winner 2017 Best Play, Intimate Theatre for 33 Variations) played to sold out houses opening weekend of their 27th Season with the thriller ROPE, written by Patrick Hamilton, directed by Ken Sawyer, produced by Kevin Shewey. ROPE runs now through Sunday, October 28 at the Actors Co-op Crossley in Hollywood.
Chasing a dangerous thrill and "for the fun of the thing," two students commit the perfect murder. Motivated by pride and vanity, Wyndham Brandon hides the body in a wooden chest right under the noses of his unsuspecting dinner guests! The play was later adapted into the 1948 Alfred Hitchcock film.
The cast features the talents of Kyle Anderson, Burt Grinstead*, Elizabeth Herron*, David Huynh, Carl Johnson*, Deborah Marlowe, Heidi Palomino, and Donnie Smith*.
The design team includes Hellen Harwell (Scenic Design and Property Design), Matthew Richter (Lighting Design), Adam R.
