David Copperfield: A Life (archive)
February 2026 saw the culmination of a year-long community play project here at Theatre Royal Bath, where the story of Dickens’ DAVID COPPERFIELD was told by local residents on the main stage.
Produced by Engage, this visually stunning, heartfelt and inclusive production was written by Mike Akers and directed and devised by award-winning director Sally Cookson
David Copperfield: A Life was made possible with thanks to the Miss Beryl Billings Charitable Trust, The Bird, Dukes Hotel and Bath Spa University.
Creative Everyone Fund
It costs Theatre Royal Bath £1300 to fund each acting participant place for David Copperfield, but we have kept fees low because we believe everyone needs access to creativity.
