Casey is back home. She’s here to sort her club out. They’ve fallen into the Championship, and have some problems to solve. The solution is obvious. Money. And Casey knows where to get it.
Inspired by real footballing events, Fit and Proper People exposes the backstage dealings that manufacture our national heroes, and addresses the very topical question of who is running our social and cultural institutions. And how they run them.
We will transform the theatre into a football stadium with real turf, floodlights and constant media coverage for 90 minutes of spectacular action.
Turn up to the show in a football shirt and get a free drink.

Superb commentary on modern football. Recommended to all my friends. No filthy corrupt stone is left untouched.

Just seen this write up are there any plans to tour especially in the Newcastle upon Tyne area.

What an incredible show, well done to teh RSC for comissioning something so utterly fresh and compelling, I have to say that the blinkered, traditional critics could not have been more wrong on this one! Thanks you for a wonderful night. Still shaking.
Hello! I am a young actor based here in London and just wanted to say that I really enjoyed @Fit and Proper people last night. (as a theatre and football fan, in was nice to see these two cousins of culture coming together) x
