The Traitors Set for a Thrilling London Stage Debut
Posted on
Studio Lambert and Neal Street Productions are bringing the global sensation *The Traitors* to London theatre in 2027. This bold new adaptation will be written by award-winning writer John Finnemore (*Cabin Pressure*, *Good Omens*) and directed by Olivier Award-winner Robert Hastie (*Operation Mincemeat*, *Standing at the Sky’s Edge*).
The stage announcement comes as the multi-award-winning television series, hosted by Claudia Winkleman, continues to captivate audiences. *The Celebrity Traitors*, which concluded in December 2025, drew a record-breaking 15 million viewers for its finale on BBC One and BBC iPlayer, making it the UK’s most-watched programme of the year.
**Stephen Lambert**, CEO of Studio Lambert, said:
“*Taking The Traitors from screen to stage is a hugely exciting next step for this much-loved brand. Partnering with Neal Street Productions, a true theatrical powerhouse, allows us to reimagine the show as a bold and surprising theatrical performance. Faithful fans should expect an intense, joyful night out as we reveal a thrilling new hunting ground for our Traitors*.”
**Caro Newling**, Co-Founder of Neal Street Productions, said:
“*In developing The Traitors for the stage, Neal Street and Studio Lambert have curated a team of brilliant faithful theatre-makers led by director Rob Hastie and writer John Finnemore to bring a bold, structural twist to the format that only the live medium can provide*.”
*The Traitors*, originally created in the Netherlands and broadcast in over 50 territories worldwide, has garnered multiple Emmys, BAFTAs, and international awards, cementing its status as a global cultural phenomenon.
Further production details and timelines will be revealed in due course.
