Psych thriller to rock Macedon

The Mount Players Theatre Company is gearing up to present performances of a gripping psychological thriller next month, promising to keep viewers guessing up to the final moment.

Presented at the home of the Mount Players – the Mountview Theatre – from May 9–25, The Girl on the Train is adapted from Paula Hawkins’ best-selling novel.

Actors from the Mount Players will present this intense tale that follows protagonist Rachel Watson, who hopes for a different life and whose only escape is through the perfect couple she watches through the train window every day – or so it appears.

Rachel one day learns that the woman she’s been secretly watching has mysteriously disappeared, finding herself as a witness, and even a suspect, in a thrilling mystery where she faces bigger revelations than she could have ever imagined.

Viewer discretion is advised and the play is suitable for mature audiences aged 16 plus, with the performance containing strong language and depictions of domestic and sexual violence and alcoholism.

Evening performances will be held on Fridays and Saturdays from 8pm and matinee performances from 2pm on Sundays at Mountview Theatre, 56 Smith Street, Macedon.

A full list of dates, pricing, and booking details is available on the theatre company’s website.
