In 1934 a group of Northumberland miners attended a WEA evening class in art appreciation. Struggling to understand the paintings they were presented with, they began to paint the everyday things they saw around them, producing some iconic artwork.

Lee Hall, writer of Billy Elliot, again champions that culture should be available to all and tells their story in this award winning play.

Funny, emotive and entertaining, the play examines the lives of this group of ordinary men who do extraordinary things.

This amateur production is presented by special arrangement with Samuel French Ltd.
