‘The Day We Played Brazil’ – The Play
As part of Exeter City’s celebration of being the first team to play the international Brazil, 
there will be a play at the Northcott Theatre. to celebrate this unique piece of English football history.
The play will be on at the Northcott in Exeter between Wednesday 16th July to Sunday 27th July 2014.
What is the play about?
The Day We Played Brazil celebrates the 100th anniversary of the football match between Exeter City and the Brazil national team – the first-ever game played by Brazil.
Based on the extraordinary true story of Exeter City FC’s tour to South America in 1914 this musical play is performed by 100 local people telling the stories of the players and their wives, sweethearts and families back home. With plenty of music, tears and laughter along the way, as well as some great footballing moments, it’s a story of adventure and excitement both on and off the pitch that will take the audience through the highs and lows of the hundred years in Exeter since the outbreak of the Great War.
