About The Daughter of Time

London, 1950.

Inspector Alan Grant, laid up in hospital, investigates the alleged crimes of Richard III and the murder of the Princes in the Tower as a “cold case file.” What begins as a distraction becomes an urgent mission, as Grant tangles with two scheming Shakespearean actors, a couple of opinionated nurses, his own sceptical deputy, and a lovesick young American historical researcher to solve his case.

And along the way, he might just solve the mystery of his own heart.

Based on Josephine Tey’s classic novel – ranked No. 1 in the British Crime Writers’ Association Top 100 Crime Novels of All Time – M. Kilburg Reedy’s new play swirls together history, myth, comic disasters and irresistible romance.

Charing Cross Theatre’s world premiere of The Daughter of Time is directed by Jenny Eastop and presented in a strictly limited season from 18 July to 13 September 2025.
