A complete account of my search for my father would take a lifetime to tell because that’s how long I’ve been looking.Spurs and Scotland star John White was one of the best footballers of the 1960s. However, in July 1964 he was struck by lightning and killed at 27 years-old. From humble beginnings growing up just outside Edinburgh, through to football fame and his tragic death, the play shares John’s cheeky humour. It also follows the story of his son Rob White, who was just five months old when his dad died. The play shines a light on the mental health challenges both father and son face and the way we deal with grief and loss.Martin Murphy’s The Ghost of White Hart Lanewas originally produced by Bruised Sky Productions and supported by Tottenham Hotspur FC. It was commissioned by John White’s son Rob and follows on from his and Julie Welch’s Sunday Times bestselling biography The Ghost of White Hart Lane - ’In Search of My Father the Football Legend’.This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in July 2024 before the subsequent run at Edinburgh Fringe Festival at Underbelly in August 2024.

  • Mississippi Goddamn
    Jonathan Norton
       “Some shows have warnings for strobe lights. Some have them for loud gunshots.  Some for smoke.   MISSISSIPPI GODDAMN, a new play by Jonathan Norton should have one for intensity.   Granted, anyone attending a play about civil rights pioneer Medgar Evers set in 1963 Jackson, Mississippi, should expect some strife. Blood in the battle for racial equality is no surprise, but f...

  • The Lady From Maxim’s
    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick
       “It seems to me that for fertility in droll inventions, the perpetual outpouring of unforeseen misunderstandings, for the inexhaustible gaiety of dialogue, Feydeau’s new play is superior to everything he’s written so far. The most astonishing thing is the sureness with which everything is controlled, explained, justified, in the most extravagant buffoonery. The cross-purpose...

       “Plenty of glamorous backstabbing, diva dissing and sexual double-crossing…has every right to claim the name Dynasty for itself.  But the title character in Betty Shamieh’s bouncy, bumpy comic melodrama is the real thing. A queen, I mean, and not just of the self-dramatizing type. Scratch that. She’s more than a queen. She’s a pharaoh, one Hatshepsut, who reigned over Egypt ...
