Details

Summary
Edited from seven sensational days of High Court transcripts, witness the case of Rebekah Vardy v Coleen Rooney unfold in their own words.
A story stranger than fiction that blurs the boundaries of tabloid scoop, court case and soap opera, this trial explores privacy and celebrity in modern Britain whilst asking who is Davy Jones and where exactly is his locker?
While the country was captivated, only a handful of people witnessed what happened behind closed doors. Now you can too.
History
Vardy V Rooney: The Wagatha Christie Trial was first performed at the Wyndham’s Theatre in the West End, followed by a transfer to the Ambassadors Theatre in the West End before a UK and Ireland tour.
