Product Description
Saturday 7 October 2000. England v Germany, The King George v The Duke of York. Keegan resigns and Barry plays a blinder. Tensions erupt in a South London pub as England lose again. First produced at the National Theatre in 2002, Sing Yer Hearts Out for the Lads became a controversial classic exploring racial tension against the backdrop of an England football match watched in a south London pub. The play highlights how a surface acceptance of racial differences is easily destoryed leading to violent escalation and the polarisation of racial groups.

Customer Reviews
If you've never read a play. This should be your first
I have just got back from seeing this at the National. The set is amazing a full pub. Some of the audience sit inside the pub. The actors are superb, including Asher D from So Solid Crew. My advice: Book tickets now! Order the play and remind yourself of the best play you have ever seen.
