11 – 22 August
Thrilling stage adaptation of legendary John Le Carré novel, THE SPY WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLD to visit Theatre Royal Bath on major UK tour, starring RALF LITTLE.
Following a sold-out run at Chichester Festival Theatre and a hit West End premiere, this gripping new play is written by David Eldridge (Beginning, Middle) and directed by Jeremy Herrin (Grace Pervades, A Mirror, People, Places & Things), alongside Tour Director Joe Lichtenstein.

Based on the worldwide bestseller and named in TIME Magazine’s All-Time Greatest 100 Novels, The Spy Who Came In From The Cold is a riveting journey through the fog-shrouded terrain of Cold War espionage, deception, and moral compromise.
