Boys from the Blackstuff
Fresh from its five-star, sold-out world premiere at Liverpool’s Royal Court Theatre, followed by a short run at the National Theatre, Boys from the Blackstuff transfers to the West End for a strictly limited season. Alan Bleasdale’s BAFTA-winning television series - one of the most-watched of the 1980s - is transformed into a powerful new play by Olivier Award-winner James Graham (Dear England; Sherwood). Featuring the characters and stories that resonated with millions when it was first beamed into our living rooms, this “blistering” (Financial Times), “ambitious and timely” (The Stage) new version of a seminal classic nails the brilliant mix of heart and humour that made Chrissie, Loggo, George, Dixie and Yosser so relatable 40 years ago. Don’t miss out on tickets to see the ground-breaking kitchen sink drama, and portrait of working-class life, on stage at the Garrick Theatre. The hit show has already proven itself an audience favourite, so book now.
