The current production is making its stage debut at Ambassadors Theatre, following a highly successful online run. The play has also previously been staged at the Royal National Theatre in London.

His play Bent, based on gay people in the Holocaust, premiered in 1979 and was nominated for a Tony Award in 1980.
Storyline
Rose takes the audience through her roller coaster of a life that has its beginnings in a small Russian village. Over the course of the play, Rose details her life in Poland where she encounters the ghettos of Warsaw. She eventually traverses America on a ship called The Exodus, where she makes her way from Atlantic City in New Jersey to Miami in Florida. Eventually, the play Rose proves itself to be a searing commentary of significant events that shaped the course of the 20th century, from the lens of a dynamic and powerful Jewish woman immigrant in the States. Grab your Rose London tickets to catch the live production at Ambassadors Theatre.

Difficulty in hearing Maureen Lipman, she should wearing a mic . Because she is portraying Rose with an axecent that also makes harder and one misses the punch line. I do have a problem with my hearing but I had my hearing aids in on full volume. Perhaps could be further forward on the stage. I suppose I was disappointed that I could be emersed in the performance instead, I had to concentrate on what was being said.
