Pickets and Pigs
T1402615402
A drama about the two conflicting sides in the Miner's Strike. The play deals with the devastating effect the strike had on two separate families on opposite sides of the divide, in a small parochial village. As a serving police officer involved in the strike, Arthur was perfectly placed to see at first hand the way in which both sides were manipulated, and their roles distorted by politics and the media. The play also recalls the commitment and loyalty of both sides - one fighting to save jobs and the community, and the other fighting to maintain the rule of law.
