'A sexy, smirky, tongue-in-someone-else’s cheek riot, gleefully politically incorrect.'
Evening Standard
1999's Cruel Intentions holds a special place for all lovers of the male form in cinema. Ryan Phillipe's turn as Sebastian Valmont was incredibly sexy, and his butt scene capped off a decade of great scenes featuring Ryan's rump. The movie was made into a musical over a decade ago and made it's debut on stage in 2015. It played in Los Angeles, New York and Australia. It also had a production that toured the US in 2019.
The show is back, and debuted at The Other Palace theatre in London earlier this month. So far the reviews have been good and it's currently set to play through April. The musical features a collection of songs from the 90's including hits from Britney Spears, No Doubt, Melissa Etheridge, Christina Aguilera, The Backstreet Boys and many other popstars from the 90's.
The London production also features an actor as Sebastian who bares a striking resemblance to Phillippe, including his wavy blond hair. Actor Daniel Bravo takes on the role of the manipulative Sebastian and appears to be having a great time in the role. Rumors are that Phillippe's butt scene is replicated the musical, but sadly, I've yet to find any images. Given the show just opened... .hopefully soon!
