About
The National Theatre’s Olivier Award-winning smash hit Dear England is now on a major 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 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; Punch) this epic ‘state-of-the-nation drama’ (Financial Times) tells the uplifting, at times heartbreaking, and ultimately inspiring story of Gareth Southgate’s revolutionary time as England manager, exploring themes of national identity, masculinity, mental health, resilience, and what it means to be a leader.
David Sturzaker (Doctors, BBC) plays former England manager Gareth Southgate in this gripping examination of nation and game. He is joined by stage and screen actress Samantha Womack (Eastenders, BBC; The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe) as team psychologist Pippa Grange.
