J. T. Rogers

Rogers adapted his play into the HBO film Oslo (2021) which was executive produced by Steven Spielberg and received two Primetime Emmy Award nominations.

Rogers created, wrote and served as the showrunner for the HBO Max television series Tokyo Vice (2022–2024).

[10] The play had its European debut at London's Theatre 503 in May 2010, directed by Tom Littler and featuring Sorcha Cusack, Barry Stanton and Miranda Foster.

He received the Otis Guernsey New Voices Playwriting Award at the 2007 William Inge Theatre Festival in Independence, Kansas.

[12] In 2009, Rogers was the sole American playwright along with 11 British authors to create The Great Game: Afghanistan for the Tricycle Theatre, London.

The play premiered in the US Off-Broadway in October 2011 at the Lincoln Center Newhouse Theater, directed by Bartlett Sher.

[14] Charles Isherwood, in his review in The New York Times, wrote that the play was "superb", with a "first rate production...the characters...really seem to be living in this turbulent history..."[15] The reviewer for The Guardian, Michael Billington, criticised the writer's "advantage of hindsight which lends much of the action a self-conscious irony" but otherwise praised him for a "complex, demanding play.

[18] Rogers' 2016 political drama Oslo became his most successful work to date, including a highly acclaimed Broadway run.

So it is particularly gratifying to announce that it has been allowed to stretch to its full height in the thrilling production that opened on Thursday night, directed with a master's hand by Bartlett Sher.

[23] The film starred Ruth Wilson and Andrew Scott and was directed by Tony-winner Bartlett Sher, who helmed the Broadway play.

Steven Spielberg and Marc Platt served as executive producers alongside Rogers, Sher, and Cambra Overend.

[25][24][26] Rogers wrote the television drama Tokyo Vice, based on the non-fiction book by Jake Adelstein.

The eight-part series was produced for HBO Max and stars Ansel Elgort, playing Adelstein, an American journalist who embeds himself into the Tokyo Vice police squad to reveal corruption.

[33] In 2024 he reunited with director Bartlett Sher for his latest play Corruption about the 2011 News International phone hacking scandal based on the 2021 novel Dial M for Murdoch.
