James Graham OBE, one of the UK’s most prolific playwrights, has made his name exploring a veritable mix of subjects over the years. These have included American evangelist Tammy Faye, the Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? scandal, a Mathematics Olympiad, and the 1968 ABC TV interview between William F. Buckley Jr. and Gore Vidal.
Next up, he’s taking on the British footballing establishment, namely “the gentle revolution” that’s taken place in the English team since Gareth Southgate took over as manager. The new play, called Dear England, will be staged at the National Theatre and will have Joseph Fiennes starring as Southgate.
