LES LIAISONS DANGEREUSES Begins at Dragon Theatre Tonight
LES LIAISONS DANGEREUSES opens April 19 at the new Dragon Theatre. A tale of seduction set in France among aristocrats, this drama explores decadent sexuality, moral, and manipulation played as the ultimate battle of the sexes between the Marquise de Mertuil and the Vicomte de Valmont. In this classic story of revenge, love, lust, and betrayal, Les Liaisons Dangereuses shows us that "the only thing which might surprise one is how little the world changes."
Written by Christopher Hampton, based on the novel by Choderlos de Laclos, the production will be directed by Jeffrey Bracco. It stars Laura Jane Bailey*, Lessa Bouchard, Stephanie Crowley, Jean Conger, Katie Rose Krueger, Maria Giere Marquis, Jeremy Ryan, Evan Michael Schumacher, and Kit Wilder*. (* denotes members of Actor's Equity) This is an Equity approved project.
Designed by Jason Arias (company manager), James Kasyan (sound), Scarlett Kellum (costumes), Solia Martinez-Jacobs (stage manager), Will Poulin (lighting), Julia Sussner (set).
The production runs tonight, April 18th - May 12th, 2013, Thursdays - Saturdays at 8pm (doors open at 7:30pm) and Sundays at 2pm (doors open at 1:30pm). Opening night gala after the April 19th show. Post-show discussion after the show Sunday, May 5th
