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.
The screening will take place at QUAD in Derby on Friday 14 August 2026 at 18:00. The film will be shown in the main auditorium.
The film features performances from Phil Daniels, Leslie Ash, and Sting. The story follows Jimmy Cooper, a young Mod who becomes disillusioned with his life in London and longs to return to Brighton.
Tickets are available via the QUAD website. The event is a screening of the 1979 film Quadrophenia.
