Dealer’s Choice will play at the Donmar Warehouse in London from 18 April 2025 – 7 June 2025.
With the critically acclaimed Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812 currently playing at the theatre, and the world premiere of Anna Mackmin’s Backstroke in rehearsals, Artistic Director Tim Sheader and Executive Director Henny Finch today announce a major revival of Patrick Marber’s Dealer’s Choice, completing Sheader’s inaugural season as Artistic Director.
What is Dealer’s Choice about?
“Play the man, not the cards”
Sunday night. Stephen hosts a weekly poker game in the basement of his failing London restaurant. All the usual suspects are there; the chef, the waiters, the errant son…but tonight a stranger has come to play.
As the stakes get higher, the game turns savage…now no one’s safe when everything’s on the line.
Patrick Marber’s acclaimed 1995 debut won The Evening Standard Award (Best Comedy) and the Writer’s Guild of Great Britain Award (Best West End Play). It has since been performed in more than 50 cities across the world.
