A play by Christopher Hampton
Adapted from the book by Pierre-Ambroise-Francois Choderlos de Laclos

Rickman on chaise longue

This play was performed at four theaters--in both London and New York--from 1985 to 1987. Rickman's Valmont wooed his audiences with more than 500 performances, and though it nearly destroyed him emotionally, his portrayal of an eighteenth-century philandering playboy brought him the attention that furthered his career.
