Description
A play about escaping the past and seizing the present. 2nd May 1997 marks a historic victory for New Labour, as the Tories' 18-year rule comes to an end. Three personal stories emerge from this momentous day. A Tory MP struggles with his future, while his wife faces the consequences of her own sacrifices. Meanwhile, two young men and their friend navigate the changing world around them. Jack Thorne's play explores the complexities of politics, identity, and human connection in the aftermath of a major election. First performed at the Bush Theatre, London, in 2009, this book brings together three theatres to bring this powerful story to life.
