The play takes place in 1958, and follows the character and star, Oscar Levant, who appears on a late-night talk show hosted by the character of Jack Paar.
According to the official website, the premise follows Oscar, who ‘will prove just that when he appears live on national TV in an episode that Paar’s audience—and the rest of America—won’t soon forget.’
Helen’s outing comes after she shared loved-up Instagram snaps of the pair earlier this year.
The Call The Midwife star confirmed her romance with Dan is going from strength to strength after they spent Easter together.
Helen reportedly started dating Dan in January. It is believed they met on celebrity dating app Raya.
The pair looked happier than ever as they posed arm in arm for a photo with friends, before sharing several snaps with her children on holiday.
She captioned her post: ‘A beautiful start to spring. Waters near and far.. from The Thames to Tenerife. Easter moments with friends, family and finally some vitamin D (and Rosé)’
Helen shares two daughters, Wren Ivy and Lark, with her ex-partner of seven years, Jack Ashton, whom she split from in 2023.

The actress was previously linked with her Call The Midwife co-star Olly Rix, who played her onscreen husband Matthew Aylward.
They reportedly grew close following splits from their respective long-term partners.
Olly had separated from his make-up artist girlfriend Natasha Fagri, whom he had been dating since 2016.
In November 2023, she was snapped leaving Olly’s home, which sparked rumours of a growing connection between the pair – but they have since unfollowed each other on Instagram.
However, Helen and Olly drifted apart, and after joining Raya in a bid to find love, she is now dating the property marketing agency boss.
According to Dan’s LinkedIn profile, he has worked in real estate for more than 25 years, and his specialist skill is that ‘he sees the bigger property picture – which now activity embraces technology’.
Dan split up from the mother of his two children, who are 14 and 12, Kate Wetten, in 2016. They married in 2008.
Meanwhile, Simon, 76, sported a blue denim blazer and trousers, which he paired with a white-and-blue leaf print shirt
