Also known as Dangerous Liaisons, this cool drama of Court intrigues and sex scandals in Pre-Revolutionary France is definitely one of the more mature-minded of Broadway's current offerings. Laura Linney stars (in the role played by Glenn Close on film) as the Marquise de Merteuil, who connives with an amoral courtier to ruin a young girl's virtue.
From all reports, the costumes are lavish, the swordplay dexterous, and the wordplay appropriately witty - if you're looking for a romantic drama, this is a good pick. It's not an old play, by the way - although it's an adaptation of a novel published in 1782, the play was written in 1985.
The Roundabout is one of the larger not-for-profit theatres in New York, and their productions are usually marked by a high degree of competence and skill; they crank out a half-dozen or so Broadway shows per year - ranging from Shaw to Bacharach - and a large percentage of their audience subscribes to the season and sees them all. Ergo, if you're looking to get away from the tourist horde, this beautifully restored theatre just off Times Square is paradoxically quite a good choice.
