'PATRICK MARBER'S MOST FAMOUS PLAY STILL DAZZLES'
– Jane Shilling, The Daily Telegraph
Dan rescues Alice. Anna photographs Dan. Larry meets Anna online. Alice rescues Larry. This is London at the end of the twentieth century, where lives collide and fates change in an instant. Strangers become lovers and lovers become strangers...
After its premiere in 1997, Patrick Marber’s critically acclaimed theatre production Closer won Olivier, Evening Standard and New York drama Critics' Circle Awards. Since then, the play has been produced in more than 200 cities across the world.
In 2015, director David Leveaux revived Marber’s Closer at the Donmar Warehouse in London, with Wayne McGregor as Movement Director.
