Actors gotta act.
If you can make it there, you have a chance to see Loki and Daredevil together on stage, in a Broadway production. Tom Hiddleston played Loki in the Avengers movies, and Charlie Cox will be known to Netflix viewers as Daredevil / Matt Murdock, and the two of them will join Zawe Ashton (Wanderlust, Doctor Who) on stage as all three of them make their Broadway debuts. The Jamie Lloyd-helmed production, previously seen in the West End, begins with preview performances on August 14 in the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre for the Broadway revival of Harold Pinter’s Betrayal.
Betrayal recounts a seven-year romance in reverse chronological order. Hiddleston, Ashton, and Cox are all making their Broadway debuts as Robert, Jerry, and Emma, respectively, with Eddie Arnold as the Waiter. The show will officially open in a limited engagement on Broadway on September 5.
Rush tickets, at $40 each, can be obtained in person at the theatre’s box office on the day of the performances beginning at 10 AM, Monday through Saturday, and noon on Sundays, with a limit of two rush tickets per customer.
Betrayal originally premiered at London’s National Theatre in 1978, and debuted on Broadway in 1980 at the Trafalgar Theatre (now the Nederlander). It’s been revived twice since then, so this makes the play’s fourth production run since its inception.
The current revival officially opened in London in March as part of the ‘Pinter at the Pinter’ season.
The production features sets and costumes by Soutra Gilmour, lighting by Jon Clark, and sound design and original music by Ben and Max Ringham. Casting is by Jim Carnahan, CSA.
