The ensemble cast features new talent including Geoff Breton, Nicholas Shaw and Rasmus Hardiker, alongside established names Sarah Lancashire, Hugo Speer, Mark Williams and Kevin Doyle. Ben, Doug and Philip attend King William’s School, a middle-class institution that’s set to give them a start in life that their parents never had.Aspiring writer Ben lusts after “posh” Cicely Boyd, Doug flies the flag for socialism and prog-rock lover Philip is desperate to start his own band. Ben’s dad Colin is in middle management at Leyland’s Longbridge works, while Doug’s shop-steward father Bill is a dedicated trade union man. Philip’s bus driver dad Sam and housewife mum Barbara seem happy, but does Barbara want more from life? The Rotters’ Club is a tragi-comic blend of the personal and the political, taking in everything from strike action to the delights of first love.A tale not just of individuals but of an entire era, it is enriched by a real sense of life in the Seventies.

    DANIEL PEMBERTON COMPOSER Daniel Pemberton is an Ivor Novello-winning, multi Golden Globe and BAFTA Award-nominated composer who has regularly been cited as one of the most exciting and original new voices working in modern film scoring today. Daniel’s recent work has included scoring Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of the ChicAgo 7, Harry Bradbeer’s EnolA Holmes starring Millie Bobby Brown and the Netflix documentary Rising Phoenix, showcasing the stories behind the Paralympic Games. Further work includes DC Films Birds of Prey, directed by Cathy Yan and starring Margot Robbie, Edward Norton’s Motherless BrooKlyn, for which Daniel’s incredible jazz score was nominated for a Golden Globe, Richard Curtis-penned Danny Boyle-directed Yesterday, Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse, Warner Bros’ Ocean’s Eight, and The DArk CrystAl: Age of ResistAnce for Netflix.
