Francis Beckett’s new play Make England Great Again is set just after the Britons First Party wins its first ever general election victory, and its charismatic leader Max Moore enters 10 Downing Street.
It’s a comedy, but also a warning.
Francis Beckett’s last three plays have had successful runs at Upstairs at the Gatehouse. The New Statesman called A Modest Little Man “a moving and entertaining play about Clement Attlee.”
In The House Magazine, John McDonnell MP wrote of Vodka with Stalin: “As always with Francis’s work, you can’t fail to become emotionally close to the characters.”
His Tom Lehrer is Teaching Math and Doesn’t Want to Talk to You was “A glorious celebration of one of the brightest, wittiest and most principled satirists”.

One of the UK’s most compelling jazz partnerships, don’t miss an evening with singer Sarah Moule and pianist-composer Simon Wallace.
For more than 25 years they have toured theatres, clubs and festivals presenting their unique repertoire of highly acclaimed songs by Simon and the late great lyricist Fran Landesman. This is performed alongside innovative reinterpretations of classic material from Duke Ellington to Smoky Robinson and Paul Simon. Their last five albums have drawn widespread acclaim, including a five-star review in The Observer, and lavish praise from critics on both sides of the Atlantic.
“Superb interpretations… impressionistic, floating, wildly romantic.” – Peter Quinn.
“Massive talent and perfect technique… Moule stands in the top flight of UK vocalists. Every Wallace solo was understated storytelling perfection, each note existing in acres of space.” – Jazz UK.
