New Perspectives Theatre Company is thrilled to present the  The Lovesong Of Alfred J Hitchcock, written by visionary British playwright David Rudkin. This poetic new play takes a unique look at the way the great filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock developed the ideas of his most famous films, including Marnie,Vertigo, Psycho and Strangers On A Train. Starting off in in his director's chair, the sixty-year old Hitchcock begins to imagine some of the defining films of our time. The play explores Hitchcock's childhood memories of his mother, the strict Jesuit priests who schooled and the pranks he played as a schoolboy. It delves into his later life, including conversations with screen writers, the feelings of guilt towards his faithful wife and his earliest feelings of love.
"Rudkin's darkly riveting play brilliantly demonstrates the way Hitchcock's art is the key to his life"
