The Promise

Date: 19 July - 17 August 2024

19 July – 17 August, Minerva Theatre at Chichester Festival Theatre.

1945. After six years of war, time is up for Winston Churchill’s Tories. With a rallying cry for change, Labour wins an astonishing, landslide election victory: determined to make a welfare state, build millions of homes, reorganise dilapidated schools, and most dramatically, create a National Health Service that is free at the point of need. But in the face of bitter opposition, is this an audacious pledge of hope or a promise too far?

Paul Unwin’s new drama is a fascinating, deeply pertinent portrayal of the people who moulded modern Britain and what it cost them.
