A British psychological thriller that draws inspiration from the notorious Leopold and Loeb case, which also served as a muse for Alfred Hitchcock's 1948 film.The play delves into the dark depths of human nature and morality, centering on two young men, Wyndham Brandon and Charles Granillo, who believe they have committed the perfect
