Nominated for Best New Play at the Olivier Awards 2024 Its time to change the game. The country that gave the world football has since delivered a painful pattern of loss. Why cant Englands 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 Grahams rousing new play (Tatler) is a fast-moving portrayal of Gareth Southgates 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. This edition was published to coincide with the West End transfer of Dear England in October 2023, following its world premiere at the National Theatre in June 2023.
