NT LIVE | Les Liaisons Dangereuses

BAFTA Award winner Lesley Manville (The Crown, Phantom Thread) stars alongside Aidan Turner (Poldark, The Hobbit) in a striking new production of the acclaimed adaptation of the classic French novel, set in the glittering salons of the super-rich, where a single misstep can mean ruin.

The Marquise de Merteuil is a master of survival. Together with the charismatic Vicomte de Valmont, they use seduction as a strategy and desire as a weapon. But when their alliance breaks down and turns into rivalry, their battle threatens to destroy everyone around them.

A thrilling production about love, lies and social warfare, filmed live on the stage of the National Theatre and directed by Marianne Elliott (NT Live: Angels in America).
