PLT Brings Thrills & Chills

Mindgame Brings Thrills and Chills to the Courtroom this Winter

By Ashley McGlothren

To kick off 2023, Pensacola Little Theatre (PLT) is proud to present Mindgame, a dark comedy thriller by Anthony Horowitz. This Studio 400 production will be presented January 27-29 and February 2-4 in the M.C. Blanchard Courtroom located at The Center (formerly known as the Pensacola Cultural Center) at 400 S. Jefferson Street in downtown Pensacola. “Mindgame is a perfect way to open the new year at PLT! The Studio 400 series transitions us out of the holly jolly holiday season and into something that adults can really sink their teeth into,” Pensacola Little Theatre Executive Director, Sid WilliamsHeath said. Directed by local educator and long-time PLT Artistic Committee member Billy Buff, Mindgame follows the story of Mark Styler, a writer of glossy ‘true crime’ paperbacks, as he tries to secure an exclusive interview with Easterman, a notorious serial killer. He has no idea what he’s walking into. Mindgame commands a tone of apprehension and nervous laughter and is a puzzle box of a play. Audiences will enjoy this dazzling thriller and jet-black comedy that twists its way toward a shocking conclusion. “When we say we offer something for everyone at PLT, we mean it. You can experience that for yourself over the next few months. From the thrilling Mindgame for mature audiences in January and the classic The Addams Family this spring, to the whimsical wizardry of Puffs for families to experience together, PLT is proud to offer a diverse array of performance art for anyone in the community to enjoy,” Williams-Heath said. Tickets for Mindgame are on sale now and can be purchased online at pensacolalittletheatre.com, or by calling the Box Office at (850) 432-2042. Box Office hours are Monday through Friday from 12 pm to 5 pm. This production is recommended for mature audiences only due to language and subject matter. Mindgame was proudly funded by ACE and The Florida Division of Cultural Affairs.
