Set during the First World War, The Accrington Pals tells the story not only of the men who marched to war, but of the women left behind to navigate a world transformed by conflict.
In the Lancashire mill town of Accrington, mothers, wives, sisters, and sweethearts confront uncertainty, grief, shifting expectations, and the demands of survival. As the war reshapes daily life, the women forge friendships, challenge social conventions, and discover new strength and independence amid loss and upheaval.
Peter Whelan’s moving drama explores the emotional realities of the home front, revealing the resilience, humour, and humanity of those whose lives were irrevocably altered by war.
Rich in warmth, heartbreak, and sharply observed relationships, The Accrington Pals shines a light on the often-overlooked experiences of women during wartime, and the enduring impact of conflict on love, family, and community.
