The Wagatha Christie trial will be staged "word for word" in a West End play.
Dialogue will be taken from High Court transcripts of the week-long trial in which Rebekah Vardy lost her libel battle against Coleen Rooney.
Producers of Vardy v Rooney: The Wagatha Christie Trial say the case was so "intriguing" that they "couldn't write it" any better themselves.
The play will tell what went on after Coleen set up a sting operation to find out who leaked stories from her Instagram account. A date is yet to be set for the one-off play.
Producer Eleanor Lloyd said: "The way the trial gripped the nation demonstrated how well this story would translate to the stage; the twists and turns were so intriguing you couldn’t write it."
