SUMMARY:We're Not Going Back
DESCRIPTION:75 Mines. 3 Sisters. 1 Cause. (And a six-pack of Babycham) \n2024 is the fortieth anniversary of the 1984/85 miners’ strike\, a dispute that still resonates today. But the strike wasn’t just about pickets vs police – in this thought-provoking musical comedy\, there are no miners and no cops. Instead\, we follow the fortunes of three sisters in a pit village\, hit hard by the Government’s war against the miners and determined to set up a branch of ‘Women Against Pit Closures’.\nIt’s early 1984\, and Olive\, Mary\, and Isabel are sisters whose everyday squabbles collide with a strike that forces them to question their lives\, their relationships\, and their family ties. \nhttps://www.ripontheatrefestival.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/WNGB-trailer-captioned.mp4\n  \nThis strike wasn’t just a war fought on the battlegrounds of a picket line\, Parliament\, and public opinion; it was as much a battle in the homes and families of those fighting for their communities.\nWe’re Not Going Back tackles the resilience of working communities\, the make-and-mend fabric of family\, and the power of sticking two fingers up to a government hell-bent on destruction… and all with humour\, song and a six-pack of Babycham. \nPresented by Red Ladder Theatre Company and Unite the Union\nWritten by Boff Whalley \nTicket price: £14 (£12)
