The Invincibles

Known as the Dagenham Invincibles, Sterling Ladies are the greatest women's football team of World War One. Over two whirlwind seasons they will never lose a game. The New York Herald declares them "The Unbeaten Women Champions of the Country." Yet in 1919, the factory girls hang up their boots and triumphs fade into obscurity...

In 2023 their war-cry is heard in the roar of the Lionesses. The world has changed, yet the Women's World Cup evokes The Invincibles joyous spirit. For Hornchurch teenager Maya, it's the event of the summer. Cheering England from the family sofa, she also conjures up long-lost footballing secrets ...

This world premiere play from Amanda Whittington, one of the most widely performed playwrights in the UK, will be written as the World Cup plays out. Like the best football games, we won't know the result until the final whistle...

Promising thrills and spills, The Invincibles will celebrate both the Lionesses' epic summer adventure and the pioneering women who played their heart out a century - yet just a heartbeat - before.
