He went on to say that taking it from the screen to stage “is a hugely exciting next step for this much-loved brand”.
“Faithful fans should expect an intense, joyful night out as we reveal a thrilling new hunting ground for our Traitors,” he said.
The play will be written by John Finnemore, known for TV’s Good Omens and radio series Cabin Pressure. It will be directed by Olivier Award winner Rob Hastie, who staged shows like Operation Mincemeat and Standing at the Sky’s Edge, and is deputy artistic director of London’s National Theatre.
The announcement follows Friday’s conclusion of series four of the murder mystery reality TV show, which is presented by Claudia Winkleman.
It places secret saboteurs among a group of faithful contestants in a grand castle in Scotland, all fighting it out to win a cash prize.
The final of the celebrity edition of the show was the UK’s most-watched TV event of 2025, with about 15 million people tuning in to see traitorous comic Alan Carr become king of the castle.
