Jack Thorne's new play about the 1926 General Strike.
In May 1926, Britain's workforce ground to a halt for a general strike, with the hopes of forcing the government to commit to higher wages and improved working conditions for industrial workers.
With the printing presses shut down, the only sources of news are The British Gazette, edited by the then Chancellor of the Exchequer Winston Churchill, and the 4-year-old BBC, led by John Reith. What followed was a fierce battle for control of the news and who gets to define the truth.
'Harry Potter and the Cursed Child' playwright Jack Thorne pens this new play, which is directed by 'Ocean at the End of the Lane''s Katy Rudd
