Willy Russell - Breezeblock Park - Liverpool Playhouse |
 | | Breezeblock Park examines the existence of a working-class Liverpool family, the traditions and prejudices that form the dynamics of the relationship, set within the context of the socio-political climate. |
 | | Precursor to Educating Rita, Breezeblock Park portrays the constraints imposed on individuals by class identity and tradition, the suppression of ambition and the younger generation's desire to challenge orthodoxy. |
 | | Breezeblock Park, the story of a grisly Christmas on a Liverpool council estate, was so sturdily built that advocates of Russell's looser, more militant style saw it as a betrayal. |
