The Lady in the Van, Paperback / softback Book

The Lady in the Van Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Adapted by the author from his autobiographical memoir, The Lady in the Van tells the story of Miss Mary Shepherd, whom Alan Bennett first came across when she was living in the street near his home in Camden Town.

Taking refuge with her van in his garden originally for three months, she ended up staying fifteen years.

Funny, touching and unexpectedly spectacular, The Lady in the Van marked the return to the stage of one of our leading playwrights. The Lady in the Van with Maggie Smith opened at the Queen's Theatre, London, in December 1999.
