The Rotters' Club at Birmingham Rep

08 January 2016

In April 2016, Birmingham Rep will be premiering a stage adaptation of Jonathan Coe's (1979) award-winning novel The Rotters' Club. Set in the fictional King William's School, the novel is inspired by Johnathan's own experiences at King Edward's in the 1970s.

The Rotters' Club will run at Birmingham Rep from Saturday 2 to Saturday 9 April 2016. On opening night we will be hosting a special AP100 event at Birmingham Rep, further details of which will be sent out next week (w/c 11 January). Places will be limited and we are expecting a high demand so do keep your eye on your emails!

Further information on Birmingham Rep's production is available on the Birmingham Rep website. You may recognise the photo being used to market the production as it is a photo of members of the class of 1978.
