Les Liaisons Dangereuses
Les Liaisons Dangereuses by Christopher Hampton
Directed by: Karen B. Grierson
KWLT gives Christopher Hampton's Oscar-winning tale of seduction and intrigue among the rich and powerful a Film Noir treatment. Set in Bohemian Paris of the early 1920's, this classic story illustrates the politics of power: love and hate, hedonism and control — a no-holds-barred war waged between aristocrats, with sex as the principle weapon and innocence as the first casualty. Adult themes and partial nudity; not suitable for children.
Produced in special arrangement with Samuel French
Produced on the Broadway stage by James M. Nederlander, The Shubert Organization, Inc., Jerome Minskoff, Elizabeth I, McCann and Stephen Graham in association with Jonathan Farkas.
