French playwright Florian Zeller’s huge year continues as the Olivier Award nominated The Height of the Storm transfers to Broadway. Starring Jonathan Pryce and Eileen Atkins, this intimate and affecting play opens at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre.
For the last 50 years, André and Madeleine have enjoyed the pleasures and unpredictable nature of marriage. But as they prepare for their daughters’ visit one weekend, troubling events threaten to call their lifelong bond into question. A bunch of flowers from an unknown source, and a woman claiming to know André; in The Height of the Storm the fallibility of love and the fragility of life are explored between one couple.

Dame Eileen Atkins joins Pryce as Madeleine. Her career spans stage and screen, with television credits including a BAFTA Award-winning performance in Cranford (2008). On stage, she is a three-time Olivier Award winner, most recently being named Best Actress for Honour (2004).
Further casting includes Amanda Drew (ENRON), James Hillier (The Crown), Lucy Cohu (Forgiven) and Lisa O'Hare (A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder).

The Height of the Storm is translated by Christopher Hampton (Les Liaisons Dangereuses, Atonement) and directed by Jonathan Kent (Roundabout Theatre Company: Long Day’s Journey into Night).
