Middle Ground Theatre Company Ltd is delighted to present Dial M For Mayhem, a brand new charming comedy drama from the author and director of the hugely successful courtroom phenomenon The Verdict.

Set in 1991, it follows of a group of travelling actors from south of the Scottish border as they conquer the beautiful unforgiving landscape of the Highlands and Islands village hall circuit to perform Frederick Knott’s classic 1950’s thriller Dial M For Murder.

Set against the breathtaking backdrop of mountains and lochs, complete with unpredictable Scottish weather and internal company squabbling, Act 1’s gentle and comic yarn gives way to Act 2’s gleeful back stage chaos and laugh-out loud hilarity of the play within the play!

Praise for writer Margaret May Hobbs and director Michael Lunney on “The Verdict”:

“Rarely do we get to see such engaging drama on stage and I urge you to get along to Malvern this week whilst you have the opportunity… enthralling.” MALVERN OBSERVER 5 STARS
