Beryl , which celebrates the extraordinary achievements of this inspirational cyclist, was specially commissioned as an adaptation from Maxine Peake's acclaimed Radio 4 play. Beryl Burton was five times world-pursuit champion, thirteen times national champion and twice road-racing world champion. Her accolades include time trials, former world-record holder, numerous sports awards, an MBE and and OBE. Burton was one of the most astonishing sports people ever to have lived, but she remains something of a mystery.

Directed by Terry Revell and Jose Warhurst, performed by Partington Players.
