We Are the Lions, Mr. Manager!
‘We Are The Lions, Mr. Manager!’: Is the story of the Grunwick Film Processing Factory Strike of 1976-78 and inspirational strike-leader Jayaben Desai, one of many newly arrived Gujurati workers from East Africa. It has tremendous contemporary relevance (immigration, workplace exploitation, women’s rights, racism and human dignity), and is told in Townsend Productions’ accessible, imaginative, entertaining theatrical style with songs and music of the 1970s.
