Abstract

This essay is a survey of cultural representations of the 1984-85 British Minersʼ Strike at the time of the 30th anniversary in 2014. This historical event provides useful documentary and fictional material for various kinds of representations and performances, ranging from a dramatic analysis of the industrial dispute to a dance theatre about mining labour. The twenty-first century representations of the Minersʼ Strike not only continue to prove its historical importance in contemporary British culture and politics but also offer new ways of fostering a sense of “solidarity” among people.
