The heat is on in ’76
It’s the summer of 1976: Eurovision glory, the Sex Pistols and a relentless heatwave. At the Trico factory in Brentford, the women are having their own Made in Dagenham moment with the UK’s longest equal pay strike. For Valerie, swapping the assembly line for the picket line means more than taking on bullish management. It pits her against her husband, who wants to keep his factory job and cares more about Brentford FC than equal rights. A fictionalised play based on real events to mark 50 years since the strikes.
