Brassed Off
A Yorkshire colliery band chases the national championships as the pit that sustains them faces closure.
First Night is a theatre diary for logging the shows you've seen and discovering what to see next.
The story
Paul Allen's stage adaptation of Mark Herman's 1996 film, following the fictional Grimley Colliery Band as pit closure threatens jobs, relationships and the identity of the town around them.
In the room
An ensemble social drama that balances humour with financial hardship, family pressure and industrial decline, with brass band music at the heart of the storytelling and the band's journey towards the Royal Albert Hall.
Good fit if you like
socially rooted British drama, strong ensemble storytelling, working class politics and live music that carries the plot.
