In  'THE PUPPET MAN'  writer Russell Raintree provides us with a diverse and chilling psychological thriller. This, his latest and most powerful play, takes the audience on a totally compelling, eventful and challenging journey....'Into a world where fear stalks every path. Where shadows linger on darkened walls - Hopes fade into despair - Gloom into doom - Laughter into sorrow. A world of pain- of anguish - of suffering. Where attraction repels sin. Joy filters into abhorration. A world where tomorrow is not just another day - but a lifetime!'.....A journey not to be missed!!
 
 
                                

                                                   
       

 


 

             

                                                                                  

 

 

 

Efian, is a devious and manipulative lawyer with an extremely wealthy wife. Danny, an Al Jolson impersonator, is an insecure, convicted murderer on the run.  Erika, a vicar's daughter, is an ex-stripper and recovering alcoholic who now works as a secretary. So what, you might ask yourself are they all doing under the same roof at the same time?

All will be revealed in this tense, bizarre, highly explosive thriller...
