Rise and shine, BroadwayWorld! It is April 2, 2026 and it's time to catch up on all of the theatrical happenings you may have missed in the last 24 hours.

Pierre Choderlos de Laclos’s scandalous 1782 novel, Les Liaisons Dangereuses, has received several adaptations over the years. None more resonant than Christopher Hampton’s 1985 reinvention which is now revived and updated in a masterful manner by Marianne Elliot at the National Theatre.

Playwright Mark Rosenblatt, who wrote the play Giant that is now running on Broadway, has signed with CAA. Rosenblatt, a theater and film writer and director, won the Olivier Award for Giant when it had its premiere in the West End in 2024. 

Robert Icke is back in the West End with another star-studded classic in tow. After tackling Sophocles last year, he returns to Shakespeare, revisiting the Bard’s most misrepresented tragedy: Romeo and Juliet. Fourteen years after his directorial debut for Headlong with a radical rendition of the same play, Icke doesn’t have anything to prove - we already know he’s in a league of his own. Stylised with an ampersand like all the cool kids do these days, this production is slick, focused, and profoundly sincere.

The BAFTA and Olivier Award-winning actor Kristin Scott Thomas will reunite with renowned director Ian Rickson for Conor McPherson's new adaptation of The Cherry Orchard.

Betrayal, the acclaimed play by Harold Pinter, returns to the stage with a gripping exploration of love, loyalty, and deception. The story follows Emma, Robert, and Jerry, whose lives intertwine in a complex love triangle that challenges the boundaries between intimacy and friendship. Told in reverse chronology, the play gradually reveals hidden truths, exposing layers of secrecy and contradiction. As the narrative moves backward in time, audiences are invited to reflect on the silences, unspoken tensions, and emotional ambiguities that shape human relationships. With its precise dialogue and psychological depth, Betrayal remains a powerful and timeless portrait of the fragile nature of trust and desire.
