Boys from the Blackstuff is not to be missed when it comes to The Lowry
THE TV series of Boys from the Blackstuff had a profound effect on me, shaping my politics and opening my eyes to real life for far too many people struggling to make ends meet in Thatcher’s Britain.
In my former life as a reporter I had the pleasure of interviewing the seminal show’s creator, Alan Bleasdale.
Now it’s been adapted for the stage and James Graham’s play can be seen at The Lowry from April 22-26.
If you have anything planned that week - cancel it.
