Dear England. Why This Play About Football & Leadership Surprised Me. All These Things Review

Welcome back to All These Things – the channel where we explore the films, plays, books, podcasts and exhibitions that stay with you long after they end. In this review, I talk about Dear England—a bold, emotional, and unexpectedly powerful play about Gareth Southgate, the England football team, and what it really means to lead. I saw it at the National Theatre with more scepticism than expectation… and left completely moved. Whether you care about football or not, this is a story about identity, belief, pressure, and change—and it hits home. ✨ Dear England is touring the UK from September, so if you get the chance—go. It’s more than worth your time. 👇 For more curated cultural content, visit: 🌐 https://allthesethings.co.uk – curated for the curious mind. 📌 If this video resonated with you, don’t forget to: 👍 Like 💬 Comment 🔔 Subscribe ...and share with someone who still believes “this time, we’ll win it.” #DearEngland #TheatreReview #GarethSouthgate #JamesGraham #NationalTheatre #AllTheseThings #UKTour #FootballAndIdentity #Leadership #ThisTimeWellWinIt #BritishTheatre
