It�s 1958. Beatie Bryant has been to London and fallen in love with Ronnie, a young socialist. As she anxiously awaits his arrival to meet her family at their Norfolk farm, her head is swimming with new ideas. Ideas of a bolder, freer world which promise to clash with their rural way of life.
Roots is the remarkable centrepiece of Wesker�s seminal post-war trilogy. It was first performed in 1959 at the Belgrade Theatre, Coventry, before transferring to the Royal Court. It is the second play in a trilogy comprising Chicken Soup with Barley and I�m Talking About Jerusalem. It went on to transfer to the Duke of York�s Theatre in the West End.
A true classic, Roots is an affecting portrait of a young woman finding her voice at a time of unprecedented social change.
