We are thrilled to welcome back Townsend Productions on 18th November with their latest production “We are The Lions Mr Manager”. If you are a regular to The Place you will most likely of come across a Townsend Production play – THE RAGGED TROUSERED PHILANTHROPISTS, and FAREWELL LEICESTER SQUARE being two of the most recent.
‘We Are The Lions, Mr. Manager!’ is the remarkable story of Jayaben Desai the inspirational leader of the 1976-78 Grunwick Film Processing Factory Strike.
She not only stood up for workers’ rights and against oppression with selfless dedication, but with her steadfast resolve, she turned the dispute into a national movement for human rights and dignity inspiring future generations.
We are also glad to say that the performance will be Creatively Captioned.
