    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 – and a job.

    James Graham’s powerful new adaptation of Alan Bleasdale’s BAFTA award-winning TV series follows five men and their families in 80s Liverpool as they learn to live in a world where the old certainty of a job for life has been snatched away from them.

    Packed with heart and  humour, Boys from the Blackstuff is directed by Kate Wasserberg. This compelling and moving story of family and friendship comes to Colchester direct from a sell-out run at the National Theatre and a critically acclaimed run in the West End.

    We have 2 pairs of tickets to give away for the grand opening night on Wednesday 28th May.
