American thriller, 'Single White Female', is set to thrill Liverpudlian audiences at The Playhouse Theatre this April in a stage adaptation of the works of John Lutz. 

The stageplay interpretation is a bold and modern reimagining of the hit 1992 movie from Columbia Pictures, 'Single White Female', and the bestselling book 'SWF Seeks Same' by John Lutz.

“I remember being totally gripped by the movie when I first saw it in the cinema and could never have imagined back then that I’d be starring in the world premiere of its life on stage.” - Kym Marsh, television and stage actress.

Adapted for the stage by author, journalist and broadcaster, Rebecca Reid, this production updates the original story to the age of social media and all that it brings. The show promises to be a gripping tale of ambition, obsession, and the desperate need for belonging in an isolated world.

Kym Marsh, television and stage actress, said: “I am so excited to be bringing this brilliant new play to theatres across England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. I remember being totally gripped by the movie when I first saw it in the cinema and could never have imagined back then that I’d be starring in the world premiere of its life on stage. Get ready to be thrilled, shocked and entertained and watch out for those stiletto heels!”

TV presenter, actor and author, Lisa Faulkner, returns to the stage for the first time in 21 years, she said: “Whether you are a regular theatre goer or someone who wouldn't necessarily want to go to the theatre generally, I think people would love this as a night out. I can see mums going with their daughters, (the age guidance is 15+) and people going with groups of friends and having a great time.”
