THEATRE
Struck
written and directed by Finley Hodges
A man is struck by lightning. Now, Dillon is immersed in the plains of his mind and is forced to relive his past through forgotten memories and everything else that dwells there. Maybe he can find his inner self here, and then finally learn to appreciate life once more. But will he do it when the lightning courses through him with deadly pace?
Blue Fox Theatre is excited to present their debut production, Struck. Through events that fate has in store for a man unsatisfied with the world, themes of love and loss are explored in both conventional and abstract ways while touching on the complicated nature of life itself. Loss must turn to acceptance, suffering to redemption and despair to happiness if Dillon is going to live.

OUR HISTORY
The Bread & Roses is an award-winning free house right in the heart of Clapham. Owned by The Battersea and Wandsworth Trade Union Council (BWTUC) and run by the Workers Beer Company, part of BWTUC Trading, it prides itself as a pub with a social consciousness.
The Bread & Roses is named in recognition of the struggle of workers around the globe for a better quality of life. The name is taken from a song written during a strike of women textile workers in Lawrence Massachusetts, USA in 1912. 27.000 women went out onto the streets and marched for eleven weeks to improve their working conditions. Their banners called for bread and roses. A poet among them, James Oppenheim, wrote the lyrics to what became the trademark song for women trade unionists around the world. It is still sung by delegates to conclude the ICTU Women's Conference.
