Theatre
Synopsis:
The National Theatre’s Olivier-Award winning smash hit is coming to Salford for four weeks only, following a record-breaking run in the West End.
The country that gave the world football has since delivered a painful pattern of loss. Why can’t England’s men win at their own game?
The team has the worst track record for penalties in the world, and 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.
Written by James Graham and directed by Rupert Goold, this ‘back-of-the-net winner’ (The i) is ‘more entertaining than a World Cup final’ (Tatler).
