Following a sell-out run at the Royal Court, the play everyone is talking about is transferring to the West End. “I wanted to put you bang in the picture. Apprise you of the difficulties. Because, in case you hadn’t noticed, he’s a human f*cking boobytrap. And now, guess what, surprise surprise, boom!”
A world-famous children’s author under threat. A battle of wills in the wake of scandal. And one chance to make amends…
John Lithgow will reprise his role as Roald Dahl in the west end transfer of Mark Rosenblatt's critically acclaimed play.
Directed by Nicholas Hytner, The Royal Court's production of Giant will open at the West End's Harold Pinter Theatre in Spring 2025.

Very enjoyable play, well acted. Serious with nice moments of humour.
JAW-DROPPING performance that provoked critical thought with a "ripped from the headlines" currency and piqued curiosity about Dahl, his beliefs and his relationships. Brilliant play with enough cringeworthy moments to stay with you for days - bravo to all!
One of the best theatrical performances I have ever experienced. Dahl laid bare…..
Amazing show with good strong performances all round. The venue was nice and small making the show very intimate.
