National Theatre Live - Les Liaisons Dangereuses (15)
Les Liaisons Dangereuses
by Christopher Hampton
Based on the novel by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos
Directed by Marianne Elliott
BAFTA 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. Amid the glittering salons of the super-rich, one misstep can mean ruin.
Marquise de Merteuil is a master of the art of survival. Alongside the magnetic Vicomte de Valmont, she turns seduction into strategy and weaponises desire. But when their alliance collapses into rivalry, the battle between them threatens to destroy everyone in its path.
Filmed live on stage at the National Theatre, Marianne Elliott (Angels in America) directs this thrilling game of love, lies, and social warfare.
This is a screening of a National Theatre performance.
This screening will be subtitled.
Running time: 150 minutes (TBC)
