Chiefs' rise to the top to be turned into a stage play
Express and Echo
|May 15, 2025
EXETER Chiefs’ rise through the ranks to be crowned champions of Europe is being made into a stage play.
-
Exe Men is the debut play from Emmy award-winning screenwriter Ashley Pharoah, who wrote Life on Mars, Ashes to Ashes and Around the World in 80 Days for the BBC.
The play is based on the award-winning book Exe Men: The Extraordinary Rise of the Exeter Chiefs by Robert Kitson, The Guardian’s rugby union correspondent.
Having spent much of their existence since league rugby began in the lower divisions, the Chiefs were the nearly men for several seasons in the second tier before finally claiming promotion to the Premiership in 2010.
