The Beautiful Game

An original love story by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Ben Elton, set in Ireland during the troubles and telling a tale of ordinary people in an extraordinary situation. The hopes and ambitions of friends in a football team are played out as they grow up and fall in and out of love - and in and out of trouble.

The Boys in the Photograph, a reworked production of The Beautiful Game, played in Canada in 2009, and in South Africa in 2010.
