1 – 11 February, 2012 | The First Group Theatre, Madinat Jumeirah

From the regions number one producers that brought Dubai the sell out smash hit productions of The Women In Black and The Sound Of Music and from the pen of the master of horror, Stephen King (The Shining, Green Mile & The Shawshank Redemption) – one of the best loved and most successful writers of our time, comes the critically acclaimed stage version of Misery. Starring UK TV and West End Stars Darren Day and Yvonne O’Grady Misery is brilliantly adapted for the stage by Simon Moore from Stephen King’s best selling novel – it’s a wonderfully dramatic and chilling show. Meet the world’s scariest Number One fan in this unmissable, thrilling drama.

Paul Sheldon, world famous author is crippled in a terrible car wreck. Instead of waking up in hospital he comes to in a house occupied by the schizophrenic Annie, his “Number One Fan”. Imprisoned, Paul finds that Annie is not the angel of mercy she first appeared to be and finds that he has entered a kind of hell beyond anything he might have imagined. Trapped in the middle of no-where with no-one coming to his aid, it’s a terrifying race against time for his survival.

Starring two of the UK’s top actors, TV and West End stars Darren Day (Hollyoaks & I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here) and Yvonne O’Grady (Coronation Street & London’s Burning) this legendary story, made famous by the blockbuster Oscar winning movie version is a theatrical event not to be missed.
