The Spy Who Came In From The Cold
Starring Ralf Little (The Royle Family, Death In Paradise), The Spy Who Came In From The Cold is a riveting journey through the fog-shrouded terrain of Cold War espionage, deception, and moral compromise.

Following a sold-out run at Chichester Festival Theatre and direct from the West End, this gripping new play written by David Eldridge (Beginning, Middle, End) and directed by Jeremy Herrin (Grace Pervades, People, Places & Things) comes on a UK tour.

This production contains strong and derogatory language prevalent in the period, including anti-Semitism, and depictions of violence including torture and gunshots.
