Labour of Love

Book
A digitally illustrated political scene depicts a group of men in suits engaged in a heated confrontation, with raised fists and intense expressions. The background is a muted pink, and red roses are scattered and thrown through the air, some appearing to be falling apart. The illustration has a bold, graphic novel style with heavy outlines and expressive shading. The men wear red and grey ties, and their body language conveys passion, anger, and determination

Following the successes of Gaslight and The Dresser, Huddersfield Thespians return with James Graham’s biting comedy of love and the Labour Party. 

Labour MP David Lyons cares about modernisation and 'electability' while his constituency agent, Jean cares about principles and her community in the party's traditional northern heartlands.  

With a clash of philosophies, cultures and classes, set against the backdrop of the Labour Party over 25 years, Labour of Love is a laugh-till-you-cry comedy by the writer and creator of Quiz, Dear England and TV’s Sherwood.

    Toxic

  • A man with a beard, glasses, and a navy cap sits against a plain light blue-green wall. He has a surprised or amused expression as a scruffy, light brown and black Border Terrier mix dog sits in front of him. The dog's eyes are half-closed, and its slightly unkempt fur gives it a relaxed but serious look. The way the dog is positioned makes it look as though it has the man's face as its own beard, creating a humorous effect.
