NT Live Screening – Les Liaisons Dangereuses

In collaboration with National Theatre Live, Garter Lane Arts Centre presents: Les Liaisons Dangereuses by Christopher Hampton

Note: This is a screening of the theatrical performance that was performed at the Lyttelton Theatre from March-June 2026

Garter Lane Arts Centre is delighted to collaborate with National Theatre Live, bringing the best of live Theatre to our cinema screen.

Marquise de Merteuil is a master in the art of survival. Alongside the magnetic Vicomte de Valmont, they turn seduction into strategy and weaponise desire. But when their alliance collapses into rivalry, the battle between them threatens to destroy everyone in their path.

Olivier and Tony Award winner Lesley Manville (Phantom Thread) joins Aidan Turner (Rivals) in a striking new staging of Christopher Hampton’s celebrated adaptation of the classic novel, where among the glittering salons of the super-rich, one misstep can mean ruin.

Filmed live on stage at the National Theatre, Marianne Elliott (Angels in America) directs this thrilling game of love, lies, and social warfare
