The Damned United

Date: Tuesday, Jun 5 2018 - Wednesday, Jun 6 2018
Venue: Tobacco Factory Theatres
Artists
David Peace

Red Ladder Theatre and West Yorkshire Playhouse stage David Peace’s brilliant novel about Brian Clough’s short, ill-fated tenure as Leeds United manager.

1974. Brian Clough, the enfant terrible of British football, tries to redeem his career and reputation by winning the European Cup with his new team, Leeds United. The team he has openly despised for years, the team he hates and which hates him. Don Revie’s Leeds.

Adapted from David Peace’s brilliant and ingenious novel, The Damned United takes you inside the tortured mind of a genius slamming up against his limits.
