Chris Urch’s Debut Play, Land Of Our Fathers, Comes To The Playhouse Studio This March.

Northwest audiences will have an opportunity to see Land Of Our Fathers, the award-winning play about six Welsh miners trapped down a coal mine. Winner of Time Out’s Critics’ Choice and Fringe Show of the Year 2013, Chris Urch’s debut play is packed full of blistering comedy and echoes a generation of lost voices. It will be at the Playhouse Studio from the 1st to 5th March.

On the third of May, 1979 as Mrs. Thatcher is counting her votes and Sid Vicious is spinning in his grave, six Welsh miners are trapped down a coal mine. As the men await their rescue, secrets emerge and accusations fly. Within two weeks, everything they believe in and everything they know will have changed.
