Storyline
Two first-year students at Oxford University join the infamous Riot Club, where reputations can be made or destroyed over the course of a single evening.
Adapted by Laura Wade from her 2010 play set around a country dinner held by elite Oxford University dining group The Riot Club (read: Bullingdon), Posh is directed by An Education and One Day's Lone Scherfig. It's a story of wealthy undergraduates behaving despicably over the course of one evening, and explores what theatre critic Michael Billington calls "the masonic intimacy that still characterises British life".
