The History Boys

Winner of over 30 major awards, including the Olivier and Tony Awards for Best New Play, The History Boys is set in the 1980s and tells the story of a group of bright, funny and unruly sixth-formers in pursuit of sex, sport and a place at university. Staffroom rivalry and the anarchy of adolescence overflow in Alan Bennett’s hilariously funny and exceptionally moving play about the true purpose of education.
