Dr. Strangelove @ Noel Coward Theatre

Seven-time BAFTA Award winner Steve Coogan stars in the first ever adaption of Stanley Kubrick's iconic DR. STRANGELOVE, as the world premiere stage production prepares for a strictly limited run at London's Noël Coward Theatre from 8 October 2024. What happens when the wrong finger presses the wrong button? When an American army general launches a nuclear attack on the USSR, the whole world finds out. This comedy masterpiece, about a rogue U.S. General who triggers a nuclear crisis, is brought to the stage by acclaimed, BAFTA and Emmy Award winner Armando Iannucci and Olivier Award winner Sean Foley, in an explosively funny satire of mutually assured destruction. Coogan, who will play multiple roles in the production, said: 'The idea of putting Dr Strangelove on stage is daunting. A huge responsibility. It's also an exciting challenge, an opportunity to bring this timeless classic to a new audience. Knowing that I will be part of a creative team led by Sean Foley and Armando Iannucci means I will be working with the best people. Sean is a master of stage comedy and Armando and I started working with each other over 30 years ago. We made some memorable comedy together so it's great to be collaborating with him once again.'
