Emmy and Tony Award-winner Sean Hayes (Will & Grace) brings his acclaimed, Tony Award-winning performance to the London stage this summer - direct from a critically acclaimed Broadway season. Directed by Lisa Peterson for a seven-week summer season.

"There's a fine line between genius and insanity; I have erased this line." - Oscar Levant

It's 1958, and Jack Paar hosts the hottest late-night talk-show on television. His favourite guest is character actor, pianist, and wild card Oscar Levant. Tonight, Oscar appears live on national TV in an episode that Paar's audience-and the rest of America-won't soon forget.

Good Night, Oscar masterfully explores fame, artistry, and the fragility of genius.

The ideal candidates will have experience on mid. to large scale productions.
