Giant

Welcome to the Dahl house: Stage and screen lion John Lithgow plays kid-lit icon Roald Dahl, the author of brilliant and often quite vicious books and short stories, in a bioplay by Mark Rosenblatt that explores the antisemitism scandal that tarnished Dahl's reputation in the early 1980s. The production's 2025 West End premiere earned Olivier Awards for Best New Play as well as for Lithgow and supporting actor Elliot Levey; on Broadway, they and Rachael Stirling reprise their London performances, now joined by Aya Cash (The Boys). Two UK theater pillars, director Nicholas Hytner directs and designer Bob Crowley, set the scenes.
