Death, deception, jealousy and the inevitable twist are all main ingredients in this thriller by the master of mystery herself. A snarl of romantic entanglements explodes into murder one weekend at an upscale country home belonging to an unconventional couple. The New York Times declared the play a ‘who’s going to get it’ that quickly turns into a ‘whodunit.’
The Hollow runs at the Ottawa Little Theatre from October 23rd until November 10th with showtimes at 8pm, Tuesdays through Saturday plus one matinee at 2pm on November 4th. It was directed by Jim McNabb and features a twelve person cast of Danielle Silverman, Stephen Liddiard, Heather Archibald, Cathy Nobleman, Sam Hanson, Louis Haché, Meghan Murphy, Mary Beth Pongrac, Chris Cottrell, Theresa Knowles, Barry Daley, and Fabian Paquette-Grimes.
