Get a sneak peek at the upcoming Lincoln Center Theater premiere of J.T. Rogers' Corruption with first-look rehearsal photos. Barlett Sher is directing the new play about a phone-hacking scandal in the British news media. It will begin previews February 15, 2024 at LCT's Off-Broadway space, the Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater. An official opening night is set for March 11. See the photos in the gallery below.

Based on the book Dial M for Murdoch: News Corporation and The Corruption of Britain by Tom Watson and Martin Hickman, the play tells the true story of Parliament member Tom Watson fighting back against Murdoch’s News International after a smear campaign. In the process, he uncovers the criminal practices of the media giant.

The cast includes Dylan Baker, John Behlmann, Saffron Burrows, Anthony Cochrane, Adam Dannheisser, Sanjit De Silva, K. Todd Freeman, Eleanor Handley, Robyn Kerr, Sepideh Moafi, Seth Numrich, Michael Siberry, and Toby Stephens.

Corruption features sets by Michael Yeargan, costumes by Jennifer Moeller, lighting by Donald Holder, sound by Justin Ellington, and projections by 59 Productions' Benjamin Pearcy and Brad Peterson. Theresa Flanagan is stage manager.

Rogers is a Tony winner for his 2017 play Oslo, which was also directed by Sher and staged by Lincoln Center Theater. He was also nominated for an Emmy for his HBO film adaptation of Oslo, and is the creator, writer, and showrunner for Tokyo Vice currently streaming on Max.
