Anthony McCarten’s plays show the same flair for biographical drama that made his screenplays successful. The Theory of Everything (2014) dramatizes the life of Stephen Hawking, while Ladies Night (2017) takes a lighter approach as a comedy about a group of men who form a strip act.

The Collaboration (2022) is perhaps his most accomplished stage work, bringing together Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat for a fictional account of their real artistic partnership. It premiered on Broadway with Paul Bettany and Jeremy Pope in the lead roles.
