Red or Dead
“Although I’m a Scot, I’d be proud to be called a Scouser.”
Bill Shankly
Brought to Liverpool from Preston to fire the red heat of a revolution, Bill Shankly had one aim. To build Liverpool Football Club up and up until they were invincible.
“Liverpool was made for me, and I was made for Liverpool.”
Bill Shankly
Promotion, the first division title, the FA Cup and success in Europe all followed as Shankly defined what it was to be a Liverpool fan. He demanded total loyalty from his players and coaches. A loyalty that he hoped would be repaid when he retired.
“All I ask is that we try to make the people happy.”
Bill Shankly
Adapted and directed by Philip Breen (Royal Shakespeare Company, Clwyd Theatr Cymru) this will be the world première of an epic show that will encapsulate the story of a Liverpool legend, who did much to define the passion of the modern game.
