The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel –Deborah Moggach’s stage adaptation of her Sunday Times best-selling novel, which inspired one of this century’s most treasured films – will play at the Belgrade Theatre Coventry from 13 – 17 June, with a press night on 13 June.
The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel takes us on a journey to India with an eclectic group of British retirees as they embark on a new life. The luxury residence is far from the opulence they were promised, but as their lives begin to intertwine and they embrace the vibrancy of modern-day India, they are charmed in unexpected and life-changing ways.
