It’s the General Strike 1926 – only seven years after the slaughter of the trenches, miners’ unions lead the country against savage austerity cuts handed to the nation by a Liberal-Conservative government.
Inspired by true stories from local families in Fife, the Happy Lands follows the journey of law-abiding citizens who become law-breakers in a heroic battle against the state. It’s never a good time to stand up for your rights – but it’s always the right time.
The Happy Lands is a Theatre Workshop Scotland Production supported by Creative Scotland through The National Lottery, in association with BBC Scotland.
