A co-production with JAS Theatricals.
The National Theatre’s 2024 Olivier Award-winning smash-hit comes to Newcastle in a highly anticipated national tour.
It’s time to change the game.
The country that gave the world football has since delivered a painful pattern of loss. The England men’s team has the worst track record for penalties in the world, and new manager Gareth Southgate knows he needs to open his mind and face up to the years of hurt to take team and country back to the promised land.
From multi award-winning writer James Graham (Sherwood, BBC) and director Rupert Goold (Patriots, Cold War), this five-star ‘new stage epic’ (Telegraph) tells the uplifting, at times heartbreaking, and ultimately inspiring story of Gareth Southgate’s revolutionary tenure as England manager in this gripping examination of nation and game.
