It may have been the most memorable trial to take place in the UK in recent years, and now the aptly-dubbed Wagatha Christie saga is hitting the West End. Here’s how to get tickets. <\/p>
It all started with the now immortal words: \u201cIt was Rebekah Vardy\u2019s account.\u201d<\/p>\n
When Coleen Rooney posted this on her social media accounts, no one could have predicted the drama that followed, which seemed to get more unbelievable at every turn. In a story stranger than fiction, the wife of footballer Wayne Rooney accused Vardy of selling stories about her to the tabloid newspapers.<\/p>\n
Since she investigated the leak herself, apparently releasing false stories to only her private Instagram followers, of which there was one \u2014 Rebekah Vardy \u2014 social commentators were quick to dub Rooney the next great detective of our time, and Wagatha Christie was born.<\/p>\n
It was a story that gripped the nation. Vardy sued Rooney for libel, a case which she went on to lose. What followed was a court case that had lines in it the best fiction writers could only dream of. Think Vardy asking \u201cWho is Davy Jones?\u201d after a comment was made about her phone being at the bottom of the sea, along with other surreal moments like her use of the phrase \u201cIf I\u2019m being honest\u201d, for which Rooney\u2019s lawyer reprimanded her and said they hoped she was being honest since she was in court.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s unsurprising that the story, which had more twists and turns than a soap opera, has been dramatised in a number of forms, the first being a Channel 4 adaptation called Vardy v Rooney: A Courtroom Drama<\/a> which hit small screens late last year.<\/p>\n Now, if you want to relive the action, complete with behind-the-scenes drama, you can. Vardy v Rooney: The Wagatha Christie Trial play is set to hit the West End this spring.<\/p>\n Written by Liv Hennessey, the play examines the theme of privacy in modern Britain and promises to be a gripping and hilarious night out, with all the drama of Footballers\u2019 Wives.
