The Box Theatre Company produced Christopher Hampton's adaptation of Choderlos de Laclos' novel, 'LES LIAISONS DANGEREUSES'. Fuelled by revenge and an extraordinary confidence in their ability to manipulate anyone for their own ends, the Marquise de Merteuil and the Vicomte de Valmont treat every action as a game to be won, regardless of the cost. However, as the other players begin to influence the outcome, the rules change...
"Director Duncan Mack...successfully challenged his actors to create intimate theatre in a barn-like auditorium. In pursuit of this nothing was forgotten. Scene changes, lighting and sound, so often allowed to become afterthoughts became an integral part of the action, ensuring that the fires once stoked upon the tiny stage, never failed to flare."
