"Nobody dies at football matches in fires. It doesn't happen"
At 3.40pm on May 11th 1985, a small fire broke out in the main stand at Valley Parade football ground during the final match of the season. Within four minutes the wooden structure was ablaze. Fifty-four Bradford City supporters and two Lincoln City supporters lost their lives.
This unique theatrical experience provides a truthful retelling of stories of those involved in the Bradford City Fire. Adapted solely from real-life testimonies and interviews with witnesses, this piece of documentary theatre reveals solidarity, strength and community in the face of overwhelming tragedy.
"FYSA Theatre speaks its remembrance with admirable clarity and feeling, forcing us to try to imagine the unfathomable terror of that day" A Younger Theatre
"A hard-hitting force" Ed Fringe Review
"As lucid and uncomplicated as it is moving. I doubt there was a more authentic play on at the Fringe this year." Plays International
