First Read: Sorry, Wrong Number

Read EXCERPT FROM ACT ONE

[SCENE: As curtain rises, we see a divided stage, only the center part of which is lighted and furnished as
MRS. STEVENSON’S bedroom. Expensive, rather fussy furnishings. A large bed, on which MRS.
STEVENSON, clad in bed jacket, is lying. A night-table close by, with phone, lighted lamp, and pill bottles.
A mantle, with clock, right. A closed door, right. A window, with curtains closed, rear. The set is lit by one
lamp on a night-table. It is enclosed by three flats. Beyond this central set, the stage, on either side, is in
darkness.
MRS. STEVENSON is dialing a number on the phone, as curtain rises. She listens to phone, slams down
receiver in irritation. As she does so, we hear sound of a train roaring by in the distance. She reaches for
her pill bottle, pours herself a glass of water, shakes out pill, swallows it, then reaches for the phone again,
dials number nervously. ]
[SOUND: Number being dialed on phone: Busy signal. ]
MRS. STEVENSON [ a querulous, self-centered neurotic ]: Oh—dear! [ Slams down receiver, dials
OPERATOR.]
[SCENE: A spotlight, left of side flat, picks up out of peripheral darkness, figure of 1st OPERATOR, sitting
with headphones at small table. If spotlight not available, use flashlight, clicked on by 1st OPERATOR,
illuminating her face. ]

OPERATOR: Your call, please? MRS. STEVENSON: Operator? I’ve been dialing Murray Hill 4-0098 now for the last three-quarters of an

hour, and the line is always busy. But I don’t see how it could be busy that long. Will you try it for me

please? OPERATOR: Murray Hill 4-0098? One moment, please.

[SCENE: She makes gesture of plugging in call through switchboard. ]

As little blood as possible. Our client does not wish to make her suffer long. GEORGE: A knife okay, sir? FIRST MAN: Yes. A knife will be okay. And remember—remove the rings and bracelets, and the jewelry in the bureau drawer. Our client wishes it to look like a simple robbery.

[SOUND: A bland buzzing signal. ]
MRS. STEVENSON [ clicking phone ]: Oh! [ Bland buzzing signal continues. She hangs up. ]How awful! How

unspeakably—

Think Questions: Sorry, Wrong Number

Name:
1 How does the setting help
emphasize that Mrs. Stevenson
is alone and not feeling well?
Cite evidence from the stage
directions to explain.
Answer must have a ”quote in red” to support.
2 Mrs. Stevenson cannot be
heard by the other callers and
she slowly realizes that she is
hearing something she
obviously was not intended to
hear. Cite the part of the text
where Mrs. Stevenson and the
reader know for sure that the
callers are planning a crime.
How does this help create
suspense?
Answer must have a ”quote in red” to support.
3 From the information the author
provides about the setting, and
the details she reveals about
the murder plot Mrs. Stevenson
overhears, what inferences can
you make that suggest Mrs.
Stevenson herself might be the
intended victim? Support your

text.
Answer must have a ”quote in red” to support.
