LES LIAISONS DANGEREUSES Offering Rush Tickets Starting Next Week

Les Liaisons Dangereuses has announced a rush ticket policy beginning Tuesday, November 22. The show will offer a limited number of $40 rush tickets at the Booth Theatre, beginning at the opening of the box office each day. There is a limit of two tickets per customer. Tickets are non-transferable, subject to availability and may be partial view. Cash or credit cards will be accepted for rush tickets.

Tony Award winners Janet McTeer and Liev Schreiber star in the Donmar Warehouse production of Les Liaisons Dangereuses by Christopher Hampton, directed by the Donmar's Artistic Director Josie Rourke. The production is playing a limited engagement at the Booth Theatre (222 W 45th St) through Sunday, January 22, 2017 only.

The full company of Les Liaisons Dangereuses includes Janet McTeer as La Marquise de Merteuil and Liev Schreiber as Le Vicomte de Valmont, Birgitte Hjort Sørensen as Madame de Tourvel, Raffi Barsoumian as Le Chevalier Danceny, Ora Jones as Madame de Volanges, ELena Kampouris as Cécile Volanges, Katrina Cunningham as Émilie, Josh Salt as Azolan, Joy Franz as Victoire, David Patterson as Major-domo, Laura Sudduth as Julie and Mary Beth Peil as Madame de Rosemonde.

Former lovers, La Marquise de Merteuil and Le Vicomte de Valmont compete in games of seduction and revenge. These merciless aristocrats toy with the hearts and reputations of innocents. Merteuil incites Valmont to corrupt the convent-educated Cecile de Volanges before her wedding night but Valmont has other designs. His target is the peerlessly virtuous and happily married Madame de Tourvel.

In 1782, Choderlos de Laclos' novel of sex, intrigue and betrayal in pre-revolutionary France scandalized the world. Two hundred years later, in 1985, Christopher Hampton's stage adaptation became an award-winning sensation in London's West End and on Broadway, followed by the Academy Award-winning film Dangerous Liaisons starring Glenn Close, John Malkovich and Michelle Pfeiffer. Josie Rourke's acclaimed production transfers to Broadway after a sold-out engagement at London's Donmar Warehouse which ended earlier this year and starred Janet McTeer. The production received two Olivier Award nominations for Best Revival and Best Actress for Ms. McTeer.

The creative and production team includes Tom Scutt (Set & Costume Design), Mark Henderson (Lighting Design), Carolyn Downing (Sound Design), Michael Bruce (Composer & Music Supervisor), Lorin Latarro (Movement Director), Arthur Pita (Original Donmar Production Movement Director), Richard Ryan (Fight Director), Campbell Young Associates (Hair, Wigs & Make-up), Caparelliotis Casting (Casting), Alastair Coomer CDG (Original Donmar Production Casting), Jane Grey (Production Stage Manager) and 101 Productions LTD (General Manager).
