Frost/Nixon is a play by the British screenwriter and dramatist Peter Morgan. Its subject is the series of televised interviews that Richard Nixon granted David Frost in 1977 and that ended with a tacit admission of guilt regarding his role in the Watergate scandal. The play premiered at the Donmar Warehouse theatre in London in August 2006. Directed by Michael Grandage, and starring Michael Sheen as the talk-show host and Frank Langella as the former president, Frost/Nixon received enthusiastic reviews in the British press. It played at the Gielgud Theatre in London's West End. On March 31st, 2007, the play went into previews on Broadway. It officially opened as a limited engagement at the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre on April 22, 2007 and closed on August 19, 2007, after 137 performances. The original Broadway cast included: Frank Langella (Richard Nixon), Michael Sheen (David Frost), Rene Auberjonois (John Birt), Shira Gregory (Evonne Goolagong), Corey Johnson (Jack Brennan), Stephen Kunken (James Reston Jr.), Stephen Rowe (Swifty Lazar/Mike Wallace), Triney Sandoval (Manolo Sanchez), Armand Schultz (Bob Zelnick) and Sonya Walger (Caroline Cushing). 水門事件爆發以後，尼克森總統被迫下台。此後的數年裡，他一直保持緘默，直到1977年的夏天，他第一次接受英國脱口秀節目主持人大衛·弗洛斯特的專訪，講述水門事件的始末和自己在其中所扮演的角色。當年弗洛斯特對尼克森的採訪可稱得上是一次猫與老鼠的智斗，而採訪的高潮則出現在了尼克森承認我讓美國人民失望和他宣稱一旦總統窃聽就意味着窃聽不再是非法的的時候。
