Beschreibung

An unflinching story of ambition and the dangers of loyalty and love in the Soviet Union, by the creator of The Crown, updated and revised for the 2024 Broadway production.

If the politicians cannot save Russia, then we businessmen must. As oligarchs we can become modern Russian heroes.

1991. The Fall of the Soviet Union.

With the dawning of a new Russia, there are winners and losers, and today's patriot can fast become tomorrow's traitor. As a new generation of oligarchs fights to seize control, we follow billionaire businessman Boris Berezovsky - the 'kingmaker' behind Vladimir Putin - from the president's inner circle to public enemy number one, in this unflinching story of patronage, ambition and the dangers of loyalty and love.

Winner of the Critics' Circle Best New Play Award, Peter Morgan's Patriots opened at the Almeida Theatre, London, in 2022, and transferred to the Noël Coward Theatre. It opened on Broadway at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre in 2024.

'Morgan describes his plays as an "odd collection of pas de deux - dances between very different kinds of people." This chemistry of opposition is the seam out of which he has mined some terrific tales . . . His newest eloquent exercise in warring dualities is Patriots . . . Morgan's unusually absorbing saga of Berezovsky's complex personality and tragic predicament - alienated both from his country and

from himself - is definitely worth it. In the deadening heat of this confounding summer, it brings the refreshing novelty of intelligence and stimulation.' John Lahr
