THE SPY NOVEL THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING. NOW LIVE ON STAGE.
Direct from sell-out runs at Chichester Festival Theatre and in the West End

For the first time ever, a novel by John le Carré — the undisputed master of the modern spy genre whose works include Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy and The Night Manager — is brought to life in a thrilling stage adaptation.

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.  

Disillusioned British intelligence officer Alec Leamas is ready to come in from the cold — until veteran agent George Smiley persuades him to take one final mission against the East German Secret Service. Deep undercover, he finds his convictions tested and his defences breached by Liz Gold, a quietly defiant librarian whose compassion threatens to thaw his frostbitten heart.

★★★★ "This slick and stylish production is meticulously mounted by Jeremy Herrin" The I

★★★★ "A tense, gripping adaptation with moody flair" Financial Times

★★★★ "A tense, atmospheric production" Daily Mail

Following a sold-out run at Chichester Festival Theatre and a hit West End premiere, this gripping new play written by David Eldridge (Beginning, Middle) and directed by Jeremy Herrin (A Mirror, People, Places & Things, Grace Pervades) comes to Theatre Royal Bath for two weeks next summer.
