BackHere! Theatre Company

It's Leeds during the height of the football season in 1984 and it's carnage.

West Yorkshire miners are on strike and football hooliganism is rife, with bitter battles being fought on both the picket line and the touchline. Macca, ex-leader of the notorious Service Crew, is released from prison into a divided Leeds that he hardly recognises. With his infamous crew now disbanded, Macca’s young admirers have taken up his violent mantle defending the mighty Whites, leaving the former hooligan general on the side-lines without an army. Abandoned by the only group who respected and supported him, Macca is no longer just fighting for Leeds. He’s fighting for his own survival.

BackHere! Theatre Company presents the world premiere of Adam Hughes violent, brutal, and honest play that takes us deep inside the world of football hooliganism. Inspired by true events, Marching On Together commemorates the thirty-year anniversary of one of the bloodiest and tragic seasons of football this country has ever seen.

Marching On Together is a violent, demanding, and necessary play that will confront a part of our past that we have often ignored or misunderstood.
