The Perfect Crime In Times Square

F. Paul Wilson, the New York Times bestselling author of The Keep, The Tomb and forty other horror and suspense novels, including the popular “Repairman Jack” series, will headline a panel discussion on “Horror, Mystery and Suspense Genres in the 21st Century” before the Halloween performance of Perfect Crime, the longest-running play in the history of New York theater. He will be joined by husband and wife writing team Meredith Anthony and Lawrence Light, authors of the Times Square-set horror novel Ladykiller. The discussion will begin at 6:30PM at The Snapple Theater Center, 210 West 50th Street (at Broadway) and is free to those holding a ticket for that evening’s 8PM performance of Perfect Crime. A secluded mansion. A would-be murderess. The perfect crime. Margaret Brent is an accomplished Connecticut psychiatrist—and potential cold-blooded killer. When her wealthy husband turns up dead, she gets caught in the middle of a terrifying game of cat and mouse with a deranged patient and the handsome but duplicitous investigator assigned to the case. Perfect Crime, now running 21 years, has been called “a phenomenon” by Fox 5 News and “a true New York mystery” by New York magazine. The cast of Perfect Crime includes Catherine Russell, who has starred in the show since its first performance and played all but four of its 8,700+ performances, Michael Brian Dunn (Broadway’s The Life, Guys and Dolls, Sweeney Todd), Robert Emmet Lunney (Broadway’s Mauritius, Deuce, The Graduate, A Doll’s House, Dancing at Lughnasa), Patrick Robustelli and Richard Shoberg (24 years as Tom Cudahy on ABC’s All My Children). The play was written by Warren Manzi and directed by Jeffrey Hyatt.Tickets for the special Halloween performance of Perfect Crime have been discounted to $35 (regularly $51).
