THE NIGHTMARE ROOM
by John Goodrum
A wickedly gripping contemporary thriller inspired by Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic mystery chiller.
Two women. One locked room. One bottle of poison. And a choice that could turn deadly.
When Helen comes to, she’s bound, blindfolded, and trapped in a room she cannot escape. Standing over her is Catherine — her best friend, now her captor — who forces her into a terrifying game of Russian roulette to decide which of them will claim the man they both desire.
But the game is rigged with secrets. The room hides more than danger. And nothing — absolutely nothing — is what it seems.
A tense, twisting psychological showdown that keeps audiences on edge from the first moment to the final reveal.
“Definitely one of the highlights of the year so far for me. The Nightmare Room is an outstanding piece of theatre” – The British Theatre Guide
“Twists and turns worthy of an Agatha Christie whodunnit –a sinister labyrinth of betrayal and revenge…slick direction and excellent acting” – Eastern Daily Press
