Wise Children's Emma Rice (Wuthering Heights 2022, Tristan & Yseult 2017) takes on film legend Alfred Hitchcock in this riotously funny reworking of North by Northwest that turns the original thriller on its head.

With just six shape-shifting performers, a fabulous ‘50s soundtrack and a LOT of suitcases, this dazzling production plays with the heart, mind and soul.

Brighton Festival - Wise Children - North by Northwest

'It would be strange, would it not, if, in a city of seven million people, one man were never mistaken for another...'

But that is exactly what happens to Roger Thornhill, reluctant hero of North by Northwest, when a mistimed phone call to his mother lands him smack bang in the middle of a Cold War conspiracy. Now he’s on the run, dodging spies, airplanes and a femme fatale who might not be all she seems. 

Join us for a night of glamour, romance, jeopardy and a liberal sprinkling of tender truths.

A Wise Children, York Theatre Royal, HOME Manchester and Liverpool Everyman & Playhouse co-production. Based on the Turner Entertainment Co. Film North by Northwest. Produced by special arrangement with Warner Bros. Theatre Ventures and Kay & McLean Productions.
