The Pitmen Painters, play opens at the Duchess Theatre on Wednesday 5th October following celebrated seasons at the National Theatre and on Broadway. As the winner of the Evening Standard Award for Best New Play this is a highly amusing and moving production which examines the lives of extraordinary men who do incredible things.

Quickly choosing theory over practice the Pitmen begin to paint prolifically.

Inspired by a book by William Feaver, playwright Lee Hall recounts a truly heart-warming story about the Ashington Painters.
