Book Tickets for Giant at the Harold Pinter Theatre – The Olivier-Winning West End Transfer
Fresh from a critically acclaimed run at the Royal Court, Giant now arrives in the West End for a strictly limited 14-week engagement at the Harold Pinter Theatre. Winner of three 2025 Olivier Awards — including Best New Play — Mark Rosenblatt’s quietly devastating drama explores the fragility of public legacy, private loyalty, and the fallout of a very public disgrace. At its core is a man many believed they knew — until they looked closer.
John Lithgow Returns as Roald Dahl in a Performance of Rare Precision
John Lithgow reprises his Olivier-winning role as Roald Dahl, delivering a performance that’s both disarming and deeply discomforting. As Dahl’s publishing empire begins to unravel, Lithgow plays him not as a figurehead but as a man cornered by consequences — unpredictable, charming, at times brutal. Alongside him, Elliot Levey (also an Olivier winner for this role) is magnetic as Tom Maschler, the publisher forced to confront where admiration ends and complicity begins.
A Fiction Writer in Real Trouble
The story centres on Dahl in the later stages of his life, following a scandal that threatens to undo decades of work and reputation. Set in a single room, the drama unfolds as a relentless series of confrontations — with publishers, loved ones, and himself. What happens when a man known for storytelling loses control of the narrative? What’s left when even those closest to him begin to question the line between brilliance and damage?
A Production that Refuses to Flinch
Directed with precision by Nicholas Hytner and designed by Bob Crowley, this is a tightly staged production that places language, behaviour and discomfort front and centre. There is no sentimental framing, no easy resolutions. The play doesn’t set out to redeem or condemn — it asks, simply and insistently, for us to watch. That’s part of what makes Giant so compelling. Every silence feels deliberate. Every glance, loaded.
Book Tickets for Giant starring John Lithgow as Roald Dahl
