A new UK and Ireland tour of Craig Warner’s stage adaptation of Strangers on a Train will kick off early next year. Based on Patricia Highsmith’s novel, which was also adapted into Alfred Hitchcock’s 1951 film, the production will be directed by Roxana Silbert. The tour will open at Theatre Royal Windsor on 15 January 2027 before visiting Canterbury, York, Birmingham, Mold, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Richmond, Peterborough, Aberdeen, Brighton, Dublin, Cheltenham, Bradford, Guildford and Darlington, with dates available below. Further stops are planned for June and September to November 2027. Strangers on a Train follows two strangers who meet during a train journey, sparking an obsession with the perfect crime. The production is dedicated to the memory of Warner, who died earlier this year. David Gilbery, CEO of Bill Kenwright Ltd, said: “We dedicate this production of Strangers on a Train to the memory of Craig Warner, who sadly passed away earlier this year. “I had been looking forward to sharing this journey with him and greatly treasured the conversations we had about the production and his exceptional adaptation of Patricia Highsmith’s novel. Craig’s writing is elegant, gripping and profoundly theatrical, and it has been a privilege to revisit his work in preparing this production.” Silbert is a former artistic director of Paines Plough, Birmingham Rep and Hampstead Theatre, and was an associate director of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
