When Tom Ripley is sent to Italy to track down Richard Greenleaf, the errant son of a wealthy American couple, his mission takes on a sinister twist as their lives become inextricably entwined. Phyllis Nagy's stage adaptation of Patricia Highsmith's novel 'The Talented Mr Ripley' explores the mind of one of crime fiction's great anti-heroes: an intelligent, suave and charming psychopath whose amorality is at the centre of a plot about duplicity and murder. 'The Talented Mr Ripley' premiered at the Palace Theatre, Watford, in October 1998.
