Mikron Theatre have just announced their touring programme for the summer. One of the shows is "Atalanta Forever" : "It’s 1920, and in post-war Britain, women’s football is big news. Across the country, all-girl teams are pulling huge crowds in fund-raising games for wounded soldiers. Huddersfield amateurs Ethel and Annie take a shot at the big time. Teammates at Atalanta AFC, they’re soon tackling new football skills, mastering the offside rule and kicking back at the doubters. Come and cheer for Atalanta as our plucky underdogs learn how to play the game, take on the legendary Dick, Kerr Ladies – and find the toughest opponent of all is the FA. "
The tour will run June to September and visit many venues around the country. All shows will be outdoors . More information www.mikron.org.uk/tour_date
