Death Of The West

written by Adam Spy, directed by Oliver Lamb

A Tale set within the old American west.

We Follow Isaac West, born to the infamous, William West, was a deplorable and vicious man known for murdering another man, a father, for no good reason, known for stealing from folk. Gambling, drinking, whoring and an assorted list of sinful misdeeds just like his father.

Yet, he is most scarcely remembered for saving… a writer from death or worse. And getting himself killed doing it.

OUR HISTORY

The Bread & Roses is an award-winning free house right in the heart of Clapham. Owned by The Battersea and Wandsworth Trade Union Council (BWTUC) and run by the Workers Beer Company, part of BWTUC Trading, it prides itself as a pub with a social consciousness.

The Bread & Roses is named in recognition of the struggle of workers around the globe for a better quality of life. The name is taken from a song written during a strike of women textile workers in Lawrence Massachusetts, USA in 1912. 27.000 women went out onto the streets and marched for eleven weeks to improve their working conditions. Their banners called for bread and roses. A poet among them, James Oppenheim, wrote the lyrics to what became the trademark song for women trade unionists around the world. It is still sung by delegates to conclude the ICTU Women's Conference.
