Living Synopsis

Grow up wantin' to change the world. Spend yer twenties n'thirties in a daze. Fifty turns to sixty n'yer suddenly fightin' the urge not to kill everyone.

Sheffield, 1969. Kathy and Brian move into that big old house on Burngreave Road. Just turned twenty, a couple of babies on the way, they've got their whole lives ahead of them.

But living is a funny business. Kids, money, work. Thatcherism, Blairism and Trump. As the world turns around them, will Kathy and Brian keep their home together through sixty years of change?

Award-winning Sheffield playwright, Leo Butler's (Lucky Dog, Boy), state-of-the-nation drama about all the years of our lives.

This edition was published to coincide with the Sheffield Theatres' production in March 2026.
