UPSTAGE PRODUCTIONS PRESENTS
DEATH TRAP by Ira Levin
Directed by Deborah Kondelik
In Ira Levin’s Deathtrap, Sidney Bruhl, a writer of thrillers whose recent offerings have been flops, is prepared to go to any length and use any devious machinations to improve his fortunes.
Deathtrap is an ingeniously constructed play that offers a rare and skillful blend of gasp-producing thrills and raucous laughter. It provides twists and turns and sudden shocks in such abundance that audiences will be spellbound until the very last moment.
Deathtrap holds the record for the longest-running comedy thriller on Broadway!
“Playwright Ira Levin (Rosemary’s Baby) engages us all in an open‐handed, evening‐long game of hide-and-seek…an absolute knockout.” Walter Kerr – The New York Times

What Our Audience Has To Say About Us!
This place was FABULOUS! We saw “The Golden Girls, thank u for being a friend” best and funniest show we ever saw. Owner could not have been nicer. We will definitely be back! Also location is terrific, so close to great restaurants, etc
This hidden gem is just the cutest little theater with some really great acting and fabulous performances.
Intimate space. Great sound…Staff pleasent. Great venue.
Great time at the naked comedy show! Handsome, funny and talented young men!! Not bad on the eyes!! Too bbad my 83 year old Mother was laid up in the hospital! It was her idea to see the show!!!! Greeted warmly by the host with free wine and many laughs as he warmed up the audience dressed in drag and full of wise cracks! Check it out if you get the chance!!!
Went to see THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND with my husband and two friends and we all had a great time! Show was smart, funny, and very entertaining! A big THANK YOU to David at Empire Stage for being so accommodating with our last-minute tickets and for putting together shows we all want to see. Can’t wait for the next one!
Satisfied every time!! Always enjoy the intimate space & relaxed atmosphere. Employs & hosts always friendly.
Absolutely delightful and intimate Blackbox theatre where you see and hear everything. Plenty of parking everywhere. The lobby boasts couches to sit on and wait, snacks to buy, and a certain feeling of being in a real hip theater.
Cool place. I saw the absolutely hilarious “Thank You For Being a Friend”, the Golden Girls parody. Enjoyed every moment of it, and I’m so glad I made it a part of my vacation.
