Great for

Fans of Sean Hayes | Lovers of historical drama | Pop culture history enthusiasts

The critically acclaimed play, Good Night, Oscar, starring Emmy and Tony Award-winner Sean Hayes of Will and Grace fame, makes its way to London’s Barbican Theatre for a limited seven-week summer season. Set in 1958, the play centers around Levant’s unforgettable appearance on Jack Paar’s late-night talk show, offering a poignant exploration of celebrity, genius, and what it means to be a human in the spotlight. This production, directed by Lisa Peterson (An Iliad, The Waves) with the added genius of Doug Wright's (I Am My Own Wife) Pulitzer Prize-winning writing, guarantees a screenplay that is both intellectually fascinating and profoundly emotional.

Hailed as a "towering comedy" (Theatermania) and "a revelation" (Chicago Tribune), this production has been met with universal praise from critics and audiences alike. Whether you’re a longtime theatre fan or someone looking for a unique and compelling night out, Good Night, Oscar is a must-see.
