Cliffhanger

The Bristol Riverside Theatre presents Cliffhanger by James Yaffe. After a long tenure, a professor of philosophy at a small college is looking forward to being appointed to an endowed chair so he and his wife can enjoy their “golden years” with honor and dignity. But, their plans are given a rude jolt when his successor, a ruthlessly ambitious and vindictive woman, informs him that she is not recommending him – an act of such calculated cruelty that the usually gentle professor grabs a bust of Socrates and strikes her a fatal blow. Then, most unexpectedly… a foolproof way to dispose of the body!
