Made in Dagenham is based on the true story of the 1967
sewing machinists strike at the Ford Dagenham plant where 187 underpaid women
machinists demanded equal pay.
Characters include Harold Wilson the Prime Minister at the
time, Rita O’Grady the shop steward, Mr Tooley the boss of Ford in America and
the factory workers.
We were delighted to provide costumes for the recent
university of Manchester production of Made in Dagenham, directed by Adam Philpott and performed at the Arden Theatre.
Our pinstripe
suits for the dancing civil servants, American footballers and sparkly suits
for the posh car event came to life on stage.
Wonderful songs include ‘Busy Woman’, ‘Everybody Out’ and ‘Stand
Up’
