The Battle

Tue 14th - Sat 18th Apr

We are sorry to announce the cancellation of the forthcoming tour of The Battle (including the performance @ the Everyman Theatre, Cheltenham) as the scale of the production has proven to make a weekly tour unviable around the country. In order to protect the integrity of the work the producers have made the decision not to proceed with the tour as planned. 

We know this news will be disappointing to many who were looking forward to experiencing the production and we sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused. The box office is currently processing refunds to customers who have purchased tickets. Funds should be returned (via your chosen method of payment) within five business days. If you have not received a refund within that time frame please contact the box office via email on exchanges@everymantheatre.org.uk

The production of The Battle will be going ahead as planned at the Birmingham Rep Theatre (11 February – 7 March) and Manchester Opera House (17 – 21 March) if you wish to rebook to see the production at these venues. 

Thank you for your support and, once again, we apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

On one side, clean-cut, art-school intellectuals from the South. On the other: raw and unapologetic lads from the North. Rivalries flare, friendships fracture and at the centre of it all a mania that would define an era – were you Blur or Oasis?

From the chaos of the Brit Awards to the infamous chart war, The Battle is a wickedly funny dive into one of the greatest rivalries in rock history. Featuring legendary personalities and unforgettable clashes, it was never just about the music, but power, pride, and uncontrollable competitiveness. Expect filthy language and razor-sharp dialogue in this cut-throat new comedy that puts you right at the heart of the feuding, the fame, and the fallout.

Get ready to roll with it.

 Starring Mathew Horne as the music industry executive who kicked off the race to No 1. between the two bands.

Written by John Niven
