Yulman Theater presents Dangerous Liaisons by Christopher Hampton, directed by Joanne Yarrow, through November 4.
The play, set just prior to the French Revolution, is about sex as a strategic battle of conquests. It is based on the 1782 Choderlos de Laclos novel Les Liaisons Dangereuses. Marquise de Merteuil, a Parisian socialite spends her days concocting elaborate erotic intrigues with her coconspirator and former lover, the Vicompte de Valmont in a high-stakes game of sexual one-upmanship. The play is not recommended for children.
The cast includes Paul Corrigan as Le Vicompt De Valmont, Colleen Sentence as La Marquise De Merteuil, Lachyra Mitchell as Mme. De Volanges, Marty Albert as Le Chevalier Danceny; and Lily Gordon as Cecil Volanges.
