Maltese Falcon

April 30, May 1, 7, 8 @ 7pm
May 2, 3, 9 & 10 @ 2pm

Dashiell Hammett’s 1930 classic didn’t just define the hard-boiled detective — it invented him. The 1941 film became the gold standard for Film Noir. Now, local playwright and novelist David Jacklin brings that shadowy world to life on stage.
It’s the 1930s. Private Eye Sam Spade has seen the worst of humanity — or so he thinks. Then a new case walks through his door, dragging him into a world of lies, lust, and cold-blooded greed. Nothing is what it seems, and no one can be trusted.
Dark alleys. Sharp tongues. Double-crosses at every turn.
Everyone’s chasing The Falcon — and some won’t live to tell about it.

Step into the smoky haze and follow Spade down a twisting trail of danger and deceit.

The Maltese Falcon — the case that started it all. Don’t miss it.
