Sleuth

"Think of the perfect murder… then go one step further," says David Churchill (Director)

Sleuth, the Tony award-winning play...except we've knitted the inspired screenplay version by Harold Pinter with the heart-stopping final scene from the Anthony Shaffer play, is a completely original take on this classic. Sleuth, the ultimate game of cat and mouse, is an elaborate revenge/power story full of style and cunning. If you like a good game, you’re going to love this play. Directed by David Churchill and starring local favorites David Mayer and Ethan Berkley.

“Sleuth has been entertaining audiences for more than fifty years. WICA’s February production melds the original script with the screenplay by Harold Pinter, one of the most revered playwrights in the world of theater. The result is a fast-paced, twisting thrill ride that is sure to keep audiences guessing until the final shocking moments,” says Director David Churchill

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Whidbey Island Center for the Arts would like to begin by acknowledging that we gather on the ancestral homelands, originally known as Tscha-kole-chy (SHA-KOL-CHI) in Lushootseed (LU-SHOOT-SEED), of the Coastal Salish Peoples, on the lands of the lower Skagit, Tulalip (tuh·lay·luhp), Swinomish (SWIN-ə-mish), Snohomish (snō-hō-mish), Stillaguamish (still-uh-GWAH-mish), and Suquamish (soo-kwah-mish), who have lived in the Salish Sea basin since time immemorial and have hunted, fished, gathered, and taken care of these lands.

We respect their sovereignty, their right to self-determination, and we honor their sacred spiritual connection with the land and water.

Please join us in expressing our deepest respect and gratitude to the indigenous people of this territory and for their enduring care and protection of the land in which we currently occupy and share through the Treaty of Point Elliott signed by 82 tribes in Múckl-te-óh (Mukilteo) on January 22, 1855.
