When there is no more work to be done, what then? Machines have the ability to make our work easier and can also eliminate it overnight. The Legend of Ned Ludd is a powerful new play that explores the impact of work, automation, and capitalism on our lives. It weaves together stories from various parts of the world, showing us how we are all at the mercy of The Machine.

At the heart of this play is a Machine that has the power to choose. With 256 possible versions written, the Machine will select what the audience sees live on the night. The play takes place in various locations, including nineteenth-century England, London, Liverpool, Lagos, and beyond, or wherever the Machine decides.

Joe Ward Munrow's play is set to premiere at the Liverpool Everyman in April 2024. It is a thought-provoking exploration of the challenges and opportunities that arise as we navigate the changing world of work.
