The spokesman added: “Following the phenomenal success of The Agatha Christie Theatre Company, which sold approximately two million tickets over a decade of first class productions, comes a new chapter from Bill Kenwright’s Classic Thriller Theatre Company.

“Edgar Wallace is one of the most popular and prolific crime writers of the 20th Century and the brains behind the iconic film, King Kong.

“ Having written more than 150 detective novels throughout his career Edgar Wallace’s gripping page-turners are regarded as the bedrock of the modern thriller, and The Case of the Frightened Lady remains one of his most celebrated works.”

The plot is a classic who-dunnit.
