The acting performance titled The Wife of Willesden takes place at Grosvenor East theatre at Manchester Metropolitan University on 21 November 2026. The production focuses on Alvita, who has experienced multiple marriages and various life roles. A ticket costs £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.
