Albion play Stand Or Fall opens on Wednesday for four-night run | OneFootball

Stand Or Fall begins a four-night run on Wednesday, charting Albion’s journey from the 1990s ‘war years’ to European football through a fictional family. It arrives as the club marks 125 years and basks in a 3-0 win over Arsenal.

According to TheArgus.co.uk, the play is written and directed by Mark Brailsford. Its genesis followed a trip to see James Graham’s Dear England in Chichester, with England’s progress under Gareth Southgate helping to spark the concept.

The opening night is set to feature former Albion players in attendance, and chairman Tony Bloom is also expected. The cast includes former Eastenders star Paul Moriarty.

The project aims to give supporters something new rather than revisiting earlier Brailsford works. He secured funding, wrote the script and brought the production to life, drawing on a long theatre career and his passion for Albion.

The run comes during an international break that includes two free weekends. Supporters could keep the feelgood going with a trip to the theatre.
