Don't miss John Lithgow as Roald Dahl in Giant — the true story of a beloved author, a scandal & a legacy at stake.
About Giant
Tony, Emmy, and Golden Globe award winner John Lithgow (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Conclave, The Crown) stars as Roald Dahl in this riveting new historical drama that examines a key but lesser-known chapter of the famed illustrator's life. After his success in London, Lithgow reprises his Olivier-winning performance for New York audiences.
Nicholas Hytner directs Giant, a new play by Mark Rosenblatt that won the Olivier for Best Play. Giant tells the story of children's author Roald Dahl and the true scandal — revolving around antisemitic outbursts in the press — that shook his legacy. The Daily Mail gave the play five stars, calling it "essential viewing." With a timely story, star performer, and lauded production, this is sure to be a singular theatrical event for New York audiences to enjoy. Don't miss Giant on Broadway, playing for 16 weeks only.
