Hitch und Ich: Spellbound

In the organizer's words:

By Francis Beeding

An evening with Jens Wawrczeck - A literary-musical homage to one of the greatest filmmakers of the 20th century: Sir Alfred Hitchcock.

"Hitch and I" is a literary-musical homage to Alfred Hitchcock. Actor and singer Jens Wawrczeck, known as Peter Shaw in the radio play series "Die drei ???", brings the novels and stories on which Hitchcock's masterpieces are based back to life. Francis Beeding's novel, which Hitchcock later turned into the film "Spellbound", was originally published under the title "The House of Dr. Edwardes". Although "house" is a slight understatement. Château Landry is a medieval castle. Dr. Edwardes runs a renowned mental hospital here. Two new doctors are expected: Dr. Murchison, a psychiatrist, and Dr. Constance Sedgwick, a newcomer to the profession, who discovers on her arrival that Dr. Edwardes has left - he himself has suffered a nervous breakdown. In addition, the new patient suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder, who was brought in by Dr. Murchison himself, has killed a warden. The other patients seem to thrive on the brilliant young doctor's methods. Until the insane murderer suddenly claims to be Murchison himself. Does Constance recognize the diabolical danger in the castle?
