Details

1917: World War One is raging in Europe. In Britain, Sterling Ladies – known as the Dagenham Invincibles – are playing to win. For two whirlwind seasons, they never lose a game. Yet once peace is restored, the factory girls must hang up their boots and see triumph fade into obscurity.

2023: Injured footballer Maya follows England’s progress through the Women’s World Cup. The world has changed, yet the roar of the Lionesses evokes the Invincibles’ war-cry. In the family home, her future in the game uncertain, Maya finds herself in the present and the past.

The Invincibles celebrates two generations of inspirational women, and their adventures on the football pitch a century apart. It was premiered at Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch in 2023, and offers rich opportunities for other theatre companies looking to score a hit with their audiences.

Amanda Whittington is one of the most widely performed playwrights in the UK. Her plays include the hugely popular Ladies’ Day and its sequels Ladies Down Under and Ladies Unleashed, which have become much-performed modern classics for amateur theatre companies, and received critical acclaim.
