A new powerful two-handed version of the classic book by Robert Tressell. 
A gem of Edwardian humorous theatre with songs and music of the time. 
This hugely successful production tells the story of a group of painterdecorators 
who are joined by artist Owen, whose spirited attacks onthe dishonesty of 
Capitalism, along with his socialist vision, highlight exploitation in the workplace 
and inequality in society. Relevant still, this tale is told with vigour and passion.

‘Sets bells ringing… lightning changes… friendly brio… has a strength of it’s own…’ -
