Red Handed return to Southwark Playhouse with a major revival of this multi-award winning play, starring Billy Carter, Robin Soans and Joseph Timms.

Frank McGuinness' astonishing play follows the lives of an Englishman, an Irishman and an American, who find themselves taken hostage in Lebanon. A beautiful testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of the imagination in crisis, McGuinness' play won a Tony Award for Best Foreign Play amongst other awards. Our production marks its twentieth annivesary.

The Belle's Stratagem was also nominated for Best Off West End Production (What's On Stage Awards) and Best Fringe Play (Time Out Awards).
