Josh Barrow in DEAR ENGLAND at the National Theatre

January 30, 2025
Josh Barrow will reprise his critically-acclaimed performance as Jordan Pickford in DEAR ENGLAND at the National Theatre.

James Graham (Punch, Nottingham Playhouse; Sherwood, BBC) has updated his Olivier Award winning play to reflect Gareth Southgate’s final chapter as England manager. Rupert Goold (Patriots, Cold War, Almeida Theatre) once again directs this ‘back-of-the-net winner’ (The i).

The country that gave the world football has since delivered a painful pattern of loss. Why can’t England’s 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.

Playing from March 10th through May 24th at the National Theatre, before transferring to The Lowry in Salford - playing until June 29th.
