Synopsis

This documentary explores the stage version of Trevor Griffiths' seminal 1982 television play, 'Oi For England', for the Royal Court Theatre Upstairs. Looking back to an extensive tour of Inner London community centres before a sell-out run at the Court, it asks: Can theatre or the arts make a difference?
