Breakfast at Tiffany's (2013)

Richard Greenberg’s 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' arrived at the Cort Theatre in 2013 as a sleek, highly stylized, and textually rich dramatic stage adaptation of Truman Capote’s iconic 1958 novella, deliberately bypassing the romanticized cinematic film to restore Capote's gritty, Depression-era perspective. Set in wartime New York City, the plot follows a young, aspiring writer who becomes utterly transfixed by his eccentric, glamorous, and deeply vulnerable upstairs neighbor, the high-society call girl Holly Golightly. Directed by Sean Mathias, the high-profile production achieved immense cultural profile by starring international television icon Emilia Clarke in her Broadway debut alongside Cory Michael Smith and George Wendt.
