National Theatre Live: Les Liaisons Dangereuses at Cosy Hall, Telford
About the show
Telford Theatre On Tour in Partnership with Arts Alive presents this powerful National Theatre performance at Cosy Hall.
Les Liaisons Dangereuses by Christopher Hampton
based on the novel by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos
directed by Marianne Elliott
Olivier and Tony® Award winner Lesley Manville (Phantom Thread) joins Aidan Turner (Rivals) in a striking new staging of Christopher Hampton’s celebrated adaptation of the classic novel, where among the glittering salons of the super-rich, one misstep can mean ruin.
Marquise de Merteuil is a master in the art of survival. Alongside the magnetic Vicomte de Valmont, they turn seduction into strategy and weaponise desire. But when their alliance collapses into rivalry, the battle between them threatens to destroy everyone in their path.
Filmed live on stage at the National Theatre, Marianne Elliott (Angels in America) directs this thrilling game of love, lies, and social warfare.
