SUMMARY:Misery
DESCRIPTION:True life becomes stranger than fiction when an acclaimed romance novelist wakes up in the home of his “number one fan.” Rescued from a wintery car crash\, Sheldon finds himself incapacitated and convalescing in the secluded home of Annie Wilkes\, a seemingly kind nurse. When events take a nightmarish turn\, the injured Paul realizes the unhinged Annie has no intention of letting him leave. This spine-tingling\, nail-biting stage adaptation traps you in the room with Paul as the story spins out of control. Based on Stephen King’s acclaimed\, best-selling novel\, the tense cat-and-mouse game will grip you until the end.
