Boys From The Blackstuff

By James Graham

Gizza job. Go on, gizzit

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 jobs, avoid the ‘sniffers' and see if you can have a laugh along the way.

2 actors hold a third actor back. He is struggling against them.
5 actors on stage. some are sat down and others stood around, they are all holding a cup of tea or some food

James Graham’s powerful new adaptation of Alan Bleasdale’s BAFTA award-winning TV series is directed by Kate Wasserberg and comes to Guildford direct from the National Theatre and the West End.

A group of actors in a fight. some are dressed as police officers and some in normal clothes.
A group of actors stood in a line on a dark stage. All but 2 of them are holdin umbrellas over their heads.
