The Falcon concludes its third subscription season with a BANG! Don't miss this spectacular production of Anthony Shaffer's Tony Award-winning Best Play, Sleuth.

Popular mystery writer Andrew Wyke (Mark Capri) lives in a world of plot twists and intricate strategies. In discovering his wife’s lover, Milo (Elijah Alexander,) Mr. Wyke devises a devious plan to humiliate him. But even the best laid plans can go astray when the police arrive and a new game begins —a game where rules don’t apply and the stakes are life or death. Directed by Michael Michetti, Co-Artistic Director of The Theatre @ Boston Court.

Sleuth stars Mark Capri, standby to Alan Rickman in the recent Broadway production of Noel Coward's Private Lives, and Elijah Alexander, who may be seen this summer playing opposite Angelina Jolie in the film Mr. and Mrs. Smith and in a recurring role on the WB's Summerland. Rounding out the cast are the talented actors Leo Raul Cervinei, Michele Nacia and Larry L. Grahams.

Produced by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc.
