Tickets are now on sale to see Oscar nominee Keira Knightley, Tony winners Gabriel Ebert and Judith Light, along with Matt Ryan, in Thérèse Raquin. Directed by Evan Cabnet, the Roundabout production will begin previews on October 1 and officially open on October 29 at Broadway’s Studio 54.
Based on the novel by Émile Zola and penned by Helen Edmundson, a quiet young woman with a restless spirit, Thérèse (Knightley) submits to a loveless life at the side of her weak and selfish husband Camille (Ebert) and her controlling mother-in-law Madame Raquin (Light)…until she meets his childhood friend Laurent (Ryan). When their overwhelming passion spins violently out of control, they realize that love can be a dangerous game, and sometimes there is no winner.
The production will feature sets by Beowulf Boritt, costumes by Jane Greenwood, lighting by Keith Parham and sound by Josh Schmidt.
