The year is 1832, and I am Thomas Attwood, a man stuck between a rock and a hard place.
In the early 1800s, democracy in England was as Rotten as could be. Corrupt MPs in the pocket of Lords ruled in their masters’ favour, making sure that the rich and wealthy kept a tight grip on the reins of power. The people cried out for justice, but the Lords kept it smothered. Then, in 1832, the tipping point was reached – protest and unrest spilled across the land, led by the Birmingham Political Union and its founder Thomas Attwood – a man with an impossible choice to make about how he was going to change the face of Britain.
A blend of music and drama into one captivating whole, Attwood is an exploration of the events that nearly led Britain into a full-scale revolution, and a man desperately trying to free Britain from the clutches of power without condemning it to death entirely. No Monopoly Geniuses are marketing this modern-day exploration of forgotten history, and we’re making sure that it won’t fade away for a second time.
