About the Play
From the author of Rosemary's Baby and The Stepford Wives comes a chilling psychological thriller that will keep you guessing until the very last moment. A young couple is persuaded by a mysterious elderly pair to visit their crumbling family estate, where a strange and unsettling request awaits them. What begins as an odd but harmless favor spirals into something far more sinister, as the line between identity, memory, and reality begins to blur.
