RUGBY LEAGUE HERO PLAY ‘SULLY’ COMES BACK TO HULL TRUCK!
Thursday 10th – Saturday 26th May 2007
Book online / More info
The story of Hull sporting hero Clive Sullivan, who became one of Rugby League’s towering icons, returns to Hull Truck Theatre next month. Following its enormous sell-out success last year, Hull Truck’s Joint Artistic Director Gareth Tudor Price is bringing back the poignant tale of Rugby League hero Clive Sullivan for a second outing.Sully, which is written by Dave Windass, is co-directed by Martin Barrass, and celebrates Clive Sullivan’s life.
Clive united fans across Hull and stood tall in the Rugby League world as the last British captain to lift the Rugby League World Cup. But there was one battle he couldn’t win, the fight against cancer. The play charts Clive’s life from his childhood to flying up the wing for Hull FC and Hull Kingston Rovers. It highlights his most glorious and challenging times, not only as a Rugby League legend who was a hero to many people, but as a loving family man.
Actor Fidel Nanton returns to reprise his role as Clive Sullivan in what promises to be another moving performance. Hull Truck’s Education Assistant Lee Green, who also appeared in the original production, is coming back to tread the boards, and talented Hull actress Amy Thompson, (last seen at Truck in Christmas Crackers), will join them. Tickets are selling rapidly for this breath-taking production which is not to be missed.
