The Unspoken archiveThe Unspoken is a play that explores the knock-on effects of classism in Britain through the eyes of Jimmy, an aging coal miner in Northern England. It's 1972 when the pending miners' strike threatens a state of emergency, and we learn that Jimmy has spun countless lies over the years, fooling his blind daughter into thinking they live a life of luxury. At a glance, Jimmy appears to be a monster who's keeping his unwitting daughter captive in their run-down home. Yet as the layers are peeled away, we're forced to ask a number of uncomfortable questions, such as: what other choices does someone in his position have? And what kind of future lies in store for his daughter once he's gone?
