The Traitors On Stage
A stage version of The Traitors is in development and will open at a London venue next year, it has been announced.
The show’s producer Studio Lambert has teamed up with Sam Mendes’s production company Neal Street Productions to adapt the BBC ratings hit as a “surprising theatrical performance”.
Details of the show’s format – and if there will be any interactivity with the audience on the night – have yet to be revealed.
“Taking The Traitors from screen to stage is a hugely exciting next step for this much-loved brand,” said Stephen Lambert, the chief exec of Studio Lambert. “Partnering with Neal Street Productions, a true theatrical powerhouse, allows us to reimagine the show as a bold and surprising theatrical performance.
“Faithful fans should expect an intense, joyful night out as we reveal a thrilling new hunting ground for our Traitors.”
Caro Newling, co-founder of Neal Street, added: “In developing The Traitors for the stage, Neal Street and Studio Lambert have curated a team of brilliant faithful theatre-makers led by director Rob Hastie and writer John Finnemore to bring a bold, structural twist to the format that only the live medium can provide.”
