Description

'We're not going down without a fight.'Present day, it's the Women's Cricket World Cup: England vs India.

There's a rain delay. Tensions mount, ambitions are laid bare and a whole new tactical game begins. Calcutta, in the eighteenth century. Two British colonial administrators encounter challenges on the field of play that threaten the entire regime.

In this game of integrity and power, past and present collide…Kate Attwell's funny, provocative play explores and explodes the mythology of fair play.

First performed in 2019 at American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco, it received its British premiere in 2024, produced by the Orange Tree Theatre, ETT and Octagon Theatre, Bolton, and directed by Diane Page.
