Who is telling the truth?

It’s the 1950s. In a rented chalet in the French Alps, newly-wed Daniel Corban calls the local police inspector reporting that his wife Elizabeth is inexplicably missing.


A local priest arrives to tell Daniel that his wife has come back, to beg for his forgiveness.

A stunned Daniel immediately rejects her as an imposter, that she’s lying, and she is not his wife.

Other witnesses arrive and verify her as Madame Corban, and Daniel, doubting his sanity, feels trapped in a sinister web of intrigue. Who is telling the truth?


Cathouse Players director Bette Sartore said there were some familiar faces in her ensemble cast for this cracker of a play.


“Frank Sartore, Michael Treloar, Helen Gramberg, Maggie Browne, another cameo role from Galen Sartore – and we welcome experienced new members Graham Pitts and Mark Fuller,” Bette said.


“Running the show is stage manager Gail (Murfi) McGregor, assisted by Nicole Katiforis, and our lighting and sound techie is Di Addington.”

Cathouse Players’ Trap for a Lonely Man by Robert Thomas runs for six performances only (October 18-27) in their warm and cosy pop-up theatre at the Masonic Centre Kyneton, 7 Yaldwyn Street West.
