About

80s Liverpool. Chrissie, Loggo, George, Dixie and Yosser are used to hard work and providing for their families. But there is no work and there is no money. What are they supposed to do? Work harder, work longer, buy cheaper, spend less? They just need a chance. Life is tough but the lads can play the game. Find the jobs, avoid the ‘sniffers’ and see if you can have a laugh along the way.

James Graham‘s powerful new adaptation of Alan Bleasdale’s BAFTA award-winning TV series, directed by Kate Wasserberg, starts its 2025 national tour in Windsor, direct from the National Theatre and West End.

George Caple plays Chrissie, Jurell Carter plays Loggo, Jay Johnson takes on the role of Yosser, Ged McKenna plays George and Mark Womack is Dixie. Reiss Barber plays Snowy, Amber Blease plays Angie, Kyle Harrison-Pope is Kevin, Sean Kingsley is Malloy, Jamie Peacock is Moss, and Sian Polhill-Thomas plays Ms Sutcliffe. They are joined by Graham ElwellElliot Kingsley and Victoria Oxley.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Bleasdale’s writing is packed with humour.” – Daily Mail

⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Richly enjoyable, funny, incendiary and humane.” – The Guardian

⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Funny, punchy, humane. A wonderful play crackling with humour.” – Financial Times

⭐⭐⭐⭐ “The acting is full-throated and vivid.” – Evening Standard

⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Bleasdales’ characters are just wonderful.” – Time Out
