Dreamshed Theatre presents Writen by and starring Bill Cronshaw SATURDAY 20TH SEPEMBER Following its sell out premier, I'll Be Bert comes to the Tower as part of a national tour.
This is an amusing story of hero worship, a broken neck, dreams, nightmares, forgiveness and redemption. A must for any football fan - or for anyone finding the smell of liniment vaguely erotic! Written and performed by Bill Cronshaw, a life long Manchester city fan, the play takes an affectionate look at growing up in post-war Manchester and the impact that Bert Trautmann, City's legendary german goalkeeper, had on an impressionable schoolboy. This one man play offers a humorous and wistful slant on hero worship and club loyalty, appealing to football fans and non-fans alike. It is played out to maximum potential on a simple set using minimal props and costumes with the audience identifying with the array of different characters' situations encountered as the play progresses. With current football players accorded superstar, showbiz status, this performance reminds us of a time when players earned five quid a week and a broken beck was treated by a bloke with a bucket of water and a sponge!
