Room at the Top

ROOM AT THE TOP

By John Braine
Adapted by Andrew Taylor

21 April - 13 May 2006

Based on the ground-breaking film of 1959, this gritty drama paints
a vivid picture of the class divide in post-war Britain.

Joe Lampton is desperate to escape his working class roots. Setting his sights high, Joe seduces the daughter of a wealthy industrialist, putting aside his passionate feelings for Alice, a married older woman. When tragedy strikes, Joe reflects whether life at the top is worth the sacrifice of true happiness.
