The Trouble With Harry

The Trouble With Harry

Horncastle Theatre Company are pleased to announce the British stage premier of “The Trouble with Harry” by Jack Trevor Story.

The play has been adapted from the book by Amanda Eastwood, with kind permission from the Story Literary Estate.

A dark comedy of errors made famous by Alfred Hitchcock’s 1954 film.

On the outskirts of a small town, young Abie discovers the body of a middle-aged man in the woods. Three people are convinced they are responsible for Harry’s death: Captain Wiles thinks he accidentally shot him while hunting rabbits; Miss Graveley thinks she may have done more damage than she intended when she hit him with her shoe – and Abie’s mother reveals that it might have been her too.

Artist Sam Marlow becomes a good-natured sleuth, helping the townspeople to bury, dig up, and rebury the corpse in an effort to evade the authorities and finally discover the truth about Harry.
