Based on Jonathan Tulloch’s novel The Season Ticket, which became the cult film Purely Belter, Olivier Award-winner Jamie Eastlake’s new adaptation storms into the West End for a limited run after sell-out performances across the North East.
Gerry and Sewell live in Gateshead. They’ve got nothing — except a dream. A season ticket to their beloved football club. But after years of austerity and watching their team sold off by a southern businessman more interested in merchandise than matches, life’s tough. Until they decide they’re getting those season tickets, whatever it takes. And once they’ve got their mission, nothing’s going to stop them — except maybe a few dodgy dealers, the social, and the odd madcap scrap merchant.
Starring original cast members Dean Logan, Jack Robertson and Becky Clayburn as Gerry, Sewell and Brabin, alongside Erin Mullen as Bridget.
Gerry & Sewell blends live music, puppet dogs and the magic of Wor Flags (plus the odd star cameo) into a wild, funny and heartfelt tribute to black-and-white dreams.
For anyone who’s ever chased something that matters.
