The Ghost of White Hart Lane by Martin Murphy

Spurs and Scotland star John White was one of the best footballers of the 1960s, however, in July 1964 he was struck by lightning and killed at 27 years old. From humble beginnings growing up just outside Edinburgh, through to football fame and his tragic death, the play shares John's cheeky humour. It also follows the story of his son Rob White, who was just five months old when his dad died. The play follows on from the Sunday Times bestseller by Rob White and Julie Welch.

This is the premiere of The Ghost of White Hart Lane, hosted by Tottenham Hotspur F.C and performed in the Press Auditorium at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. This is the only chance to see the show in London, prior to a run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe this summer.
