LES LIAISONS DANGEREUSES to Open Actor's Express' 27th Season
Passion and power collide in Actor's Express' 27th season opener Les Liaisons Dangereuses. Called "a compelling evening of malicious wit" by The New York Times, this sizzling classic runs September 6 - October 5, 2014. Performances are Wednesday through Saturdays at 8 PM and Sundays at 2 PM. Tickets are $26-$45 and may be purchased at actors-express.com or by calling 404.607.7469.
Written by Christopher Hampton, this new production is directed by Melissa Foulger whose work on Pluto and Wolves thrilled audiences in Actor's Express' last two seasons. Paul Hester and Park Krausen lead the cast as rivals and ex-lovers partaking in a dangerous game of sexual conquest in pre-revolution France. Based on the scandalous 1782 novel by Choderlos de Laclos and later adapted into an Oscar-winning film, Les Liaisons Dangereuses is a stunning slow burn of carnal scheming.
