WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
The Game, based on the 18th century scandalous novel Les Liaisons Dangereuses, returns to Barrington Stage where it received its world premiere in 2003 to critical raves and audience acclaim. Directed by Julianne Boyd, "The Game," features a musical score by Megan Cavallari, and book and lyrics by Amy Powers and David Topchik. The show is inspired by the Cholderos de Laclos novel of aristocratic sexual games in 18th-century France.
