Ethan Hawke delivers a charming, lived-in performance as lyricist Lorenz Hart, holding court at Sardi’s on the historic night of his former collaborator Richard Rodgers’ greatest triumph: the premiere of Oklahoma!

It’s 31 March 1943: the opening night of Oklahoma!, the first musical collaboration between Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II. But the celebratory afterparty at iconic Theatre District institution Sardi’s is haunted by Rodgers’s former collaborative partner Lorenz Hart, an embittered, sharp-tongued wordsmith drinking himself into an early grave. As Hart laments his failing career and the changing nature of musical theatre, eternal questions about the relationship between art, commerce and the audience take centre stage.
