The Pitmen Painters has been on Broadway and at the National Theatre to much acclaim. Now it’s in the West End and enjoying similar success. Set in the early 1930’s, The Pitmen Painters tells the story of a group of miners who gather together to take part in an art appreciation class. The miners (or ‘Pitmen’) begin to paint with overwhelming enthusiasm and gusto – so far that their work starts to become part of treasured collections of keen art collectors. Yet every day, they find themselves back down the mine.

The tale of The Pitmen Painters is a simple one of ordinary men doing extraordinary and unusual things. The play is based on book, which was adapted for stage by Lee Hall and is inspired by true events of The Ashington Group (a group of miners whose work became celebrated in the art world during the 30’s and 40’s). Directed by Max Roberts, with design by Gary McCann, The Pitmen Painters current stars Christopher Connel, Michael Hodgson, Ian Kelly and a host of other names as the wonderful band of painting miners.

Theatre-goers will find The Pitmen Painters both moving and amusing – as the miners struggle with the harsh reality of their everyday lives counterpointed by the joy of painting and the banter that goes on within the group. The result is a play which is both moving and deeply affecting – and thus thoroughly enjoyable.

The Pitmen Painters has garnered several highly praising reviews and has recently been awarded the Evening Standard Award for ‘Best New Play’.
