Auditions for Wait Until Dark (New Adaptation)

🎭 AUDITION NOTICE – Wait Until Dark
By Frederick Knott – Modern adaptation by Jeffrey Hatcher
Directed by Jeff Lowe
Step into the shadows of 1944 Greenwich Village, where danger lurks behind every closed door. In this tense, edge-of-your-seat thriller, Susan Hendrix, a blind woman, finds herself at the center of a deadly game when ruthless con men come searching for a doll stuffed with contraband. As night falls, the odds are against her—until she turns her blindness into her greatest weapon.
Adapted from Frederick Knott’s classic by Jeffrey Hatcher and famously brought to the screen with Audrey Hepburn, this chilling new version raises the stakes with its wartime setting, claustrophobic suspense, and heart-pounding finale.
