Darkly comic and constantly surprising, President Wilson in Paris, a comedy-thriller by renowned playwright, Ron Blair, will keep you on the edge of your seat.
Inspired by the master of suspense Alfred Hitchcock, powers of deduction are constantly tested as the audience is lured into a world of humour, deception, intrigue and surprise.
The play is set during the politically and socially significant peace conference in 1919 in which the revolutionary statesman Woodrow Wilson introduced his idea for the League of Nations. However, as the action moves between Paris and Sydney, past and present, all is not as it seems.
Ron Blair has written an enthralling play based on Hitchcock’s philosophy: "…you keep the audience as far away as possible from what’s actually going to happen".
In the tradition of all great mysteries President Wilson in Paris is compelling and totally fascinating theatre.
Ipswich Little Theatre presents this classic comedy thriller directed by Suzanne Matulich with Callum Campbell in the lead role of President Wilson, Majella Gee as his wife Edith Wilson and Lee Gerchow as the unfortunate Colonel House.
Public nights are 3, 4, 10, 11 March and tickets are on sale now at the Ipswich Visitor Information Centre.
