Giovanna Fletcher Will Star in BEFORE I GO TO SLEEP UK and Ireland Tour
The production will stop at Milton Keynes Theatre in March 2027.
The World Premiere stage production of Before I Go To Sleep – based on the international bestselling novel by S J Watson, which was later adapted into the hit film starring Nicole Kidman and Colin Firth – will embark on a major UK and Ireland theatre tour from January to June 2027, visiting Milton Keynes Theatre from Tue 9 – Sat 13 Mar.
Starring acclaimed actor, author and podcaster Giovanna Fletcher (The Girl on the Train, Everybody’s Talking About Jamie, 2:22 A Ghost Story) as protagonist Christine, this gripping new stage adaptation is written by Rachel Wagstaff and directed by Loveday Ingram – the celebrated creative team behind 2025’s hugely successful stage adaptation of The Girl on the Train.
Giovanna Fletcher said: “I read the international bestselling novel Before I Go To Sleep and was hooked, so I can’t wait to take this play to the stage in 2027 on our UK and Ireland tour. It’s a thrilling, chilling and captivating story that I know audiences will love. I’m also chuffed to be working with Rachel Wagstaff and Loveday Ingram again - the three of us loved working on The Girl On The Train together last year and are very happy to be reunited.”
S J Watson said: "Before I Go To Sleep has lived many lives I never expected — and this feels like one of the most exciting yet. I can't think of a better team to bring Christine's story to the stage.”
This tense and fast-paced psychological thriller will open at Richmond Theatre in January 2027, and then perform at major UK and Ireland theatres through to the end of June. Further casting will be announced. Lighting Design will be by Tony nominee, Jason Taylor.
The production delves into the story of Christine, who appears to have an idyllic life - with one terrible exception. Every night, when she goes to sleep, she loses her memory. Every morning she wakes up remembering nothing from the last 20 years of her life - not even the loving husband lying next to her. As she desperately tries to piece her life back together, hidden and terrifying truths begin to emerge, forcing her to question everything and everyone around her.
Performances run at Milton Keynes Theatre from Tue 9 – Sat 13 Mar 2027. Tickets are available for ATG+ members now, with the general onsale opening at 10am on Thu 21 Mar.
