We follow successful romance novelist Paul Sheldon, who is rescued from a car crash by his “number one fan,” Annie Wilkes, and wakes up captive in her secluded home.
While Paul is convalescing, Annie reads his latest book and becomes enraged when she discovers the author has killed off her favorite character, Misery Chastain.
Annie forces Paul to write a new Misery novel, and he quickly realizes Annie has no intention of letting him go anywhere. The irate Annie has Paul writing as if his life depends on it, and it does!

2026 Season Proposals Needed
The Dolphin Players are now soliciting proposals for productions and directors for the 2026 season. The Dolphin Playhouse is an intimate theater located in the historic Empire district. The usual season includes six productions, and the Dolphin Players are open to all genres.
Past productions have ranged from Cabaret to classic radio. The selection process begins with submission of a play proposal, followed by a presentation to the Dolphin Players board of directors. If a proposal is selected to be part of the season, the director will be supported throughout the process by Playhouse staff. Experience in directing is not required, and unpublished manuscripts will be considered.
For more information and a play proposal form, please contact Alice Carlson, Managing Director, by email at dolphinplayers@gmail.com or leave a message at the theater 541-808-2611.
