Rockingham Theatre Company presents
The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

Based on Based on the Sunday Times bestseller which inspired one of this century most treasured films, the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel takes us on a journey to India with an ec 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, they are charmed in unexpected and life changing ways. This is a joyous comedy about taking risks, finding love and embracing second chances, even in the most surprising of places.
