DON'T MISS LAURA LINNEY AND BEN DANIELS STARRING ON BROADWAY IN THE ULTIMATE BATTLE OF THE SEXES.

Tony Award® and Academy Award® nominee Laura Linney returns to Broadway alongside Ben Daniels in Christopher Hampton's seductive and decadent classic Les Liaisons Dangereuses, directed by Rufus Norris, for a strictly limited engagement beginning April 11th.

In this Tony Award-nominated play, the cunning and confident Le Marquise de Mertuil (Linney) challenges her friend and rival Vicomte de Valmont (Daniels) to a grand game of seduction. After several false moves and unexpected turns, their cruel competition escalates into a vicious battle to the last lover standing. Laced with passion, betrayal and spectacular revenge, Les Liaisons Dangereuses is a thrilling dark comedy and a revealing portrait of pre-war French aristocracy at its most disillusioned and indulgent.

What the Critics are Saying

New York Daily News
"Director Rufus Norris ("Festen") keeps the intricate plot lines flowing, and his smart use of music (servants double as singers) adds texture and commentary."
New York Post
"Christopher Hampton's play is sensual, oddly naughty and totally, impassively immoral."
The Record
"'Les Liaisons Dangereuses' is a terrifically intelligent and powerful play, and this superb production allows the audience to experience it in its full dramatic glory."
