Martina Cole said
"I'm over the moon that Theatre Royal is producing the second stage adaptation of one of my books. I'm a big fan of Kerry Michael and his talented team and I know it will be a fantastic production."
Martina Cole is one of the UK's most popular crime writers. Her books are renowned for their gritty and realistic portrayal of East London's underworld with worldwide sales of over 8 million copies and three of her most recent paperbacks have gone straight to the top spot on The Sunday Times Bestseller list. Now, for the second time, Theatre Royal Stratford East is bringing one of her best-selling novels to the stage.
The world premiere of Martina's gripping thriller THE GRAFT opens here at Theatre Royal Stratford East in early 2011 and will once again be directed by Ryan Romain.
