The timeless thriller comes to the stage for the first time

Fatal Attraction is the new psychological thriller play at the Theatre Royal Haymarket based on the 1987 hit movie. The play is produced and directed by Sir Trevor Nunn and is due to open at the Theatre Royal Haymarket from the 8th March 2014 with the official gala press night scheduled for the 25th March. Tickets for Fatal Attraction are on sale now. The play is scheduled for a limited fifteen week run until the 21st June.

Fatal Attraction is the story of obsession and revenge written by James Dearden and adapted from his original screenplay of the 1987 film Fatal Attraction starring Michael Douglas and Glenn Close.

A chance meeting in a bar between New York lawyer, Dan Gallagher, a successful, happily married man and Alex Forrest, an editor for a publishing company turns in to a casual fling that quickly becomes a living nightmare for Dan Gallagher and his young family.

While his wife, Beth, and daughter, Ellen, are out of town for the weekend, Dan has a passionate weekend affair with the glamorous Alex. He assumes it is but a simple fling which he can walk away from but Alex is a woman not to be ignored without terrifying consequences.

The tension rises in this gripping psychological thriller as Alex’s obsession escalates from emotional blackmail to stalking and violence. Who can forget the horrifying bunny boiling sequence that is the terrible fate that befalls the Gallagher’s pet rabbit as events spiral out of control.

This compelling drama is directed by award-winning Sir Trevor Nunn, former Artistic Director for the Royal Shakespeare Company, the Royal National Theatre, and director on hit musicals Cats and Les Miserables and dramas Nichola Nickleby and Macbeth, amongst many others.
