THRILL-SEEKERS are promised an edge-of-their-seat performance in a thriller being staged at a North-East theatre.

Brian Capron, who played serial killer Richard Hillman in Coronation Street, is starring in Double Death, at Darlington Civic Theatre, until Wednesday (October 1).

Set in an isolated house on the cliffs of north Cornwall, the play focuses on the sibling rivalry between identical twins Max and Ashley Hennessy, as it reaches a murderous climax.

Evening performances start at 7.30pm, with a 2pm matinee on Wednesday.
