What would you do if you met your exact double? What would happen if this double started following you? Forced his way into your life? Started to take it over?
The story is a page turner. A thriller full of surprises. A wicked, funny and unpredictable ride as we watch someone’s life unravel. Where they are forced to face the truth. What happened to that small innocent child we once were? What shapes us into the person we all become?
“A Stab in the Dark” uses extraordinary giant puppets, evocative film noir imagery and a set that’s so tilted our characters have to hang on for dear life.
It is dark. Absurdly funny. Visually beautiful. You’ll be on the edge of your seats as you watch good and evil battle it out.
