Daphne du Maurier - The Alibi
Charles Fenton is bored: bored by his job, by his wife and by his routine. In the middle of a Sunday afternoon walk by the Thames with his wife, Edna, he decides to kill somebody. Sending Edna home, he decides that he will walk down three streets and then stop at No. 16 – the same number as the day's date – and kill whoever answers the door.
Dramatised by Vanessa Rosenthal, the play follows Charles as he is dragged deeper into the lie he creates the moment he knocks on the door of his proposed murder victim, and leaves the audience to make up their own mind as to whether Charles is telling the truth.
