About Dear England - Salford

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.

It's time to change the game. 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.

Gwilym Lee (Bohemian Rhapsody, SAS Rogue Heroes, BBC) plays former England manager Gareth Southgate in the return of this ‘thrilling drama’ (Evening Standard).

The cast also includes returning performers Josh Barrow as Jordan Pickford, Gunnar Cauthery as Gary Lineker, Tony Turner as Greg Dyke, John Hodgkinson as Greg Clarke, and Ryan Whittle who is taking on a new role as Harry Kane. They will be joined by new cast members Matt Bardock as Mike Webster, Jude Carmichael as Marcus Rashford, Gamba Cole as Raheem Sterling, Ryan Donaldson as Harry Maguire, Felixe Forde as Alex Scott, Kadell Herida as Jaden Sancho, Joshua Hill as Jordan Henderson, Tom Lane as Eric Dier, Martin Marquez as Sam Allardyce, Tane Siah as Bukayo Saka, Tristan Waterson as Dele Alli, and Liz White as Pippa Grange.

Also joining the company are Jass Beki, Jordan Ford Silver, Courtney George, Will Harrison-Wallace, Miles Henderson, Philip Labey and Ellouise Shakespeare-Hart. The cast will also be playing additional roles as part of the ensemble.

Writer James Graham (Sherwood, Punch) updates his epic examination of nation and game to reflect Gareth Southgate’s final chapter as England manager. Rupert Goold (Patriots, Best of Enemies) once again directs this ‘back-of-the-net winner’ (The i), with set design by Es Devlin (Coriolanus, The Lehman Trilogy).

Please note: this is a fictionalised account of the struggles and successes of England’s football teams, based on extensive research and interviews. It features characters inspired by some real-life individuals, and some composite characters entirely imagined by the author.
