Details

by James Graham

It's time to change the game.

The country that gave the world football has since delivered a painful pattern of loss. Why can't England's men win at their own game?

The team has the worst track record for penalties in the world and manager Gareth Southgate knows he needs to open his mind and face up to the years of hurt to take team and country back to the promised land.

James Graham's 'rousing new play' (Tatler) is a fast-moving portrayal of Gareth Southgate's reign as England football manager that presents a gripping examination of both nation and game. 'Uplifting, funny and more entertaining than a World Cup final' (Tatler).

This revised edition, updated by Graham to reflect Gareth Southgate's final chapter as England manager, was published to coincide with the return of Dear England to the National Theatre in 2025 and subsequent run at Lowry, Salford.
