đď¸ The Olivier Award-winning smash hit Dear England is all set for Wimbledon Theatre in February 2026 as part of a highly anticipated national tour. Read on for a preview and ticket information.
Itâs time to change the game. The country that gave the world football has since delivered a painful pattern of loss. The England menâs team has the worst track record for penalties in the world, and manager Gareth Southgate knows he needs to open his mind and face up to the years of hurt to take team and country back to the promised land. Dear England at Wimbledon Theatre features eight shows taking place from Tuesday 24 to Saturday 28 February.Â
Football and non-football fans alike will be brought to their feet in this joyous, five-star ânew stage epicâ (Telegraph). From multi award-winning writer James Graham (Sherwood, BBC) and director Rupert Goold (Patriots, Cold War), Dear England tells the uplifting, at times heart-breaking, and ultimately inspiring story of Gareth Southgateâs revolutionary tenure as England manager.
David Sturzaker (Doctors, BBC) plays former England manager Gareth Southgate in this gripping examination of nation and game. He is joined by stage and screen actress Samantha Womack (Eastenders, BBC; The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe) as team psychologist Pippa Grange.
