One man’s life-line. The heartbeat of a generation.
Joe’s in trouble. It’s not his time but the clock is ticking. You’ve got to be ready; ready to battle, ready to clash, ready to fight.
The troops he rallies are from his past, in particular Mathew Street and the passion of his youth; the rebellious and creative fire of a small Liverpool club. A club which sparked a cultural revolution and inspired a generation of musicians, artists and writers.
Award-winning Liverpool writer Mark Davies Markham follows up the hit musical Taboo with this new musical specially commissioned for the European Capital of Culture.
The story of one man’s fight for survival as he draws on the defiant spirit of Eric’s; do it yourself, and do it your way.
