A fierce and excoriating portrait of British racism, Roy William's
_Sing Yer Heart Out for the Lads _premiered in 2002 at the National
Theatre.
Set in a south-west London pub during the 2000 England vs. Germany
match, tempers are running high. As England lose again, their
supporters in The King George lose it too – at full time, patriotism
has become unapologetic racism.
This Methuen Drama Student Edition of the play includes commentary and
notes by Gemma Edwards, University of Manchester, UK, which explore
the production history of the play as well as the historical, social
and cultural contexts that surround it, such as the rise of
Nationalism and far-right groups in the UK. Also featuring an
interview with Roy Williams about the play and its relevance 20 years
on, this edition is a must-have resource for any student exploring
_Sing Yer Heart Out for the Lads._
