SUMMARY:Steel
DESCRIPTION:A town-wide treasure hunt for a million quid of lost railway is led by the wild hearts of two teenage boys in Steel\, a punchy\, high octane new play by Lee Mattinson set in post-industrial West Cumbria. \nSteel is set in Workington\, once rich with coal seams and ore\, carnivals and community\, where James and Kamran have been mates for over a decade. They are fed up with feeling different\, and at seventeen\, they’d like the world to be theirs – but Workington feels like a ghost town. Unemployment is double the national average\, and ‘lasses drink Bacardi by the pint and boys don’t cry’. \nA strange phone call from ‘Lynn from London’ summons James and Kamran to meet her in a local cafe. She informs James that he’s heir to ‘one theoretical mile’ of the British Railway System\, secured in 1903 by his Great-Great-Great-Grandfather. Lynn explains that if James can deliver the contract proving this in time\, he will receive a million pounds. And so the town-wide treasure hunt for the lost contract begins in a flurry of remarkable wild characters\, hidden histories and brave first love. \n“…a real tribute to the spirit of Workington and should be treasured…”\nNorthern Arts Review \n‘Steel’ is commissioned and produced by Theatre by the Lake (TBTL)\, and directed by TBTL Artistic Director Liz Stevenson. \nTickets\n£12 per person \nBooking\nBook online → \nOr by call Matt on 07531 143762 \nContent warning: This show includes strong language\, descriptions of violence\, sex\, homophobia and racism. Suitable for ages 14+ \nDue to the size of the performance space\, ticket numbers will be limited\, so buy early to avoid disappointment! \nPresented with the generous help of Highlights Rural Touring Scheme
