About This Event

The Wife of Willesden is a performance taking place at the Grosvenor East theatre, Manchester Metropolitan University. The show explores the life experiences of Alvita, who recounts her stories over a drink. Tickets are priced at £5.00.

Five marriages under her belt. Mother. Lover. Auntie. Confidante. Alvita has lived it all, and she’ll happily tell you every last detail over a drink. No shame, no filter, no apologies. The only real question is: are you ready for her?

From the critically acclaimed, multi‑award‑winning author Zadie Smith, this “irresistibly rambunctious” (The Telegraph) adaptation catapults Chaucer’s renowned Wife of Bath straight into 21st‑century North West London. Join us for the first regional production of this exciting play as part of the National Year of Reading.

*Student ID will need to be presented on arrival when using a student ticket.

*If you have any access needs please book an accesible ticket and we will ensure one of our team will be on hand on the day of the show to assist.
