About This Event

On Friday 14 August 2026, QUAD in Derby will screen *Quadrophenia*, the 1979 cult film adaptation of The Who’s rock opera. Directed by Franc Roddam, the film follows Jimmy Cooper, played by Phil Daniels, a young Mod navigating the violent clashes between Mods and Rockers in Brighton and the sobering disillusionment of his working-class life in 1960s London. It captures the era’s sharp style, restless energy, and the bleak comedown that follows rebellion. On the big screen, the coastal riot scenes and the soundtrack—featuring tracks by The Who—gain a visceral intensity that home viewing cannot replicate. Tickets are available via the QUAD website.
