About This Event

Miss Brodie is no ordinary teacher. Charismatic and imposing, she gathers her chosen pupils into the Brodie Set and shapes their young minds with unshakable confidence. As her influence deepens the boundaries blur, personal entanglements surface, and one of her girls begins to question her authority. Jay Presson Allen adapted the play from Muriel Spark's novel, later filmed with Maggie Smith in the title role. Performances run nightly at 7.30pm from 9 to 13 February 2027 at the theatre on Stephenson Road, Heaton.
