Deathtrap the longest-running thriller is Broadway history will tour the UK in late 2017 starring Paul Bradley and Jessie Wallace as Sidney and Myra Bruhl.
Paul Bradley is best known for his ten-year role playing prime time TV favourite Professor Elliot Hope in BBC’s Holby City, as well as for creating the iconic role of Nigel Bates in EastEnders for six years.
Best known for her role as Kat Moon in EastEnders Jessie’s stage credits include The Perfect Murder and Chicago, both on UK Tour, Fings Ain’t Wot They Used T’Be at the Theatre Royal Stratford East, Stepping Out on UK Tour, Haunted at The Arts Theatre and Rent at the Duke Of York’s Theatre.

Sidney Bruhl, a once-successful writer of stage thrillers, is in the grip of chronic writer’s block, when young playwright Clifford Anderson sends Bruhl his brilliant new whodunit, Deathtrap. Desperate to set Broadway alight once more, should Bruhl kill the newcomer and pass the play off as his own?
