Famed playwright Sidney Bruhl debuts the latest in a series of Broadway theatre flops and returns to his opulent Long Island home and his wife Myra. Although their financial situation is not dire, Sidney is starving for a hit. He receives a manuscript of a play called ''Deathtrap'', written by one of his students, Clifford Anderson, that he considers to be near-perfection.

Sidney tells Myra that the best idea he has had lately is to murder Clifford and produce the play as his own. Myra realizes that's he's not just talking idly.
