Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will be hosting a free community preview screening of the football-themed National Theatre production before its cinema release

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is set to host a free preview screening of an acclaimed National Theatre production, allowing Tottenham locals to be among the first to see the show before it goes to general cinema release.

NT Live: Dear England will screen on Thursday, January 18th at 6pm, with the audience including participants of the West End in Tottenham programme, students from the London Academy of Excellence, Haringey Shed and Jacksons Lane.

There will be a panel before the screening with participants Will Fletcher (who plays Jordan Henderson in the show) and Dan Balfour (sound designer).

Dear England is James Graham’s play telling a fictional account of football manager Gareth Southgate’s struggles to bring England back on the path to football glory.
