The Pitmen Painters written by Lee Hall is inspired by a book by art critic and author William Feaver. It’s a compelling story about a close-knit group of miners in Northeast England in the 1930’s who enroll in an art appreciation class as a way of learning more about the world outside their village of Ashington. The plot follows members of the group as they humorously interact with a college art instructor, experiment with actual painting and gradually build a body of work that establishes them as The Ashington Group, a celebrated collective of painters in the 1930’s and 40’s. Receiving critical acclaim in London and on Broadway, The Pitmen Painters is a funny, thought provoking and moving testament to friendship, human aspiration and the transforming power of art.
