EXCLUSIVE: John Tiffany (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Black Watch) the Tony- and Olivier Award-winning director, has revealed to Deadline that his stage adaptation of the 2018 feature Wild Rose — a movie that helped propel recent Oscar winner Jessie Buckley’s early career — is to make its U.S. premiere Off-Broadway at New York Theatre Workshop for its fall-winter season.
The film version, written by BAFTA Award-winning screenwriter Nicole Taylor (Three Girls, One Day) and directed by Tom Harper (Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man), is a story about the fascinatingly complex Rose-Lynn, a Glaswegian mother of two and a country music obsessive born with a voice to die for who, upon release from jail, hopes to pursue her dream of traveling to Nashville to perform at the Grand Ole Opry.
Taylor’s adapting her script for the stage production.
