Dial L for Latch-Key

By Scott Fivelson, JTG Studios, Jim Glinski and By the Time I Get to Tucson Players

She tried to dial M for murder, but instead she accidentally dialed L for latch-key…

A plotting husband who strongly resembles Ray Milland …

A framed wife as elegant as Grace Kelly …

An Inspector straight out of Monty Python …

Hitchcock would be spinning in his grave if he weren’t suiting up for his cameo.

Suspenseful, witty, and romantic, this one-act play is a lively satire of the films of Alfred Hitchcock.
