KELI

About KELI

‘The skill, the craft, is in controlling the pressure.’

KELI tells the story of a fiery, sharp-witted teenager in a former mining town. Coal means little to Keli, but the mine's left music in the blood of the town.

As the best player her brass band has ever had, music is easy. Everything else is a fight. Feeling trapped in small-town life, pressure mounts.

When the chance to change everything arises, can Keli keep a lid on it all?

Marking 40 years since the miners' strikes and featuring a sharp, hilarious script and live brass score by Ivor Novello winner Martin Green, KELI is a gripping show about community, creativity, and music.
