Onboard are two men, strangers, who embrace the anonymity of their journey to share their deepest, darkest desires. Both are experiencing relationship troubles – Guy Haines reveals his wife has been unfaithful and he wants a divorce, Charles Bruno has been cut off by his wealthy father and wants to make him pay. Their lives on pause, Bruno offers a solution that could free them both: murder. But rather than each man killing their own targets, Bruno suggests they swap murders. With nothing to tie these two strangers to one another, Bruno argues, it would be the perfect crime! But will both men fulfil their part of the grisly pact?
What follows is a psychological thriller, with moves and counter-moves that will leave audiences guessing until the very end. Based on the novel by Patricia Highsmith, and adapted for the stage by Craig Warner, Strangers on a Train starts with a bang and races on like a runaway train. How will it end? You’ll just have to watch to find out.
