by Martin Green

The skill, the craft, is in controlling the pressure.

KELI tells the story of a fiery, sharp witted seventeen year-old in a former mining town. Coal means little to Keli, but the mines left music in the blood of this place. As the best player her brass band has ever had, music is easy. Everything else is a fight. Feeling trapped in small-town life, pressure mounts.

When the chance to change everything arises, can Keli keep a lid on it all?

KELI, by Ivor Novello winner Martin Green (Lau), marks 40 years since the miners’ strikes and is a gripping show about community, creativity, and music.

This edition of 
KELI was published to coincide with the production at National Theatre Scotland and subsequent Scottish Tour in May-June 2025.
