'In a factory like this, you're part of a team. You're a family'

Greenock 1981.

Faced with the threat of their factory closing, and with 240 jobs on the line, there's no way the women of the Lee Jeans factory are going down without a fight.

They barricade the doors, take a stand against corporate greed and stage a sit-in that lasts for 7 long months. 

Written by Frances Poet

Directed by Jemima Levick

From an idea conceived by Paul English and Frances Poet

A National Theatre of Scotland and Tron Theatre Company co-production
