I, Daniel Blake – Gala Theatre, Durham

Dan is a carpenter. A Geordie through and through. Just on the mend after a heart attack. Katie has just arrived from London. Finally got a council house for her and the kids. A fresh start.

Adapted from Ken Loach’s award-winning film by Dave Johns, who actually played Daniel Blake in that film, I, Daniel Blake is one of the most important stories of a generation. A glimpse behind the headlines and the stark reality of what happens when the political system is stacked against you.

With 14.5 million* people living in poverty in the UK, this is not fiction. It is reality.
