I, Daniel Blake

Dan is a carpenter.  A Geordie through and through.  Just on the mend after a heart attack. Katie has just arrived from London. Finally got a council house for her and the kids.  A fresh start. I, Daniel Blake is one of the most important stories of a generation.  A glimpse behind the headlines and the stark reality of what happens when the political system is stacked against you.  With 14.5 million* people living in poverty in the UK, this is not fiction.  It is reality. A touching and vital story of how people come together in the face of adversity and how sometimes creating a family to support you just isn’t enough.  The show is adapted for stage by Dave Johns who played Daniel Blake in the award winning 2016 film. *Joseph Rowntree Foundation 2022 Poverty Report.

James O’Brien in Conversation

Royal and Derngate Theatre 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP

Crosstown Concerts, Penguin Random House and Waterstones present James O’Brien in Conversation Our economy has tanked, our freedoms are shrinking, and social divisions are growing. Our politicians seem most interested in their own careers, and much of the media only make things worse. We are living in a country almost unrecognisable from the one that existed a decade ago. But whose fault is it really? Who broke Britain and how did they do it? In his forthcoming book, ‘How They Broke Britain’, LBC’s James O’Brien discusses the shady network of influence that has created a broken Britain of strikes, shortages and scandals. He maps the web connecting dark think tanks to Downing Street, the journalists complicit in selling it to the public and the media bosses pushing their own agendas. Taking this conversation on tour, one of the UK’s most popular talk radio hosts will discuss how a select few have conspired – sometimes by incompetence, sometimes by design – to bring Britain to its knees. The show will also include an audience Q&A and book signing.
