About The Soul In The Machine

The soul in the Machinesir George Williams YMCA founder.We are more than bodies to be fed to a machine. We are made for more than work. We have souls, we have spirits and somewhere in this dead city there must be a place for those things. London, 1844 Her gutters run with effluent and blood and her skies are choked with the smoke of a hundred factories and foundries, but above the smoke, the stars still shine. George Williams is a country boy who comes to the city to find his place in the world and to make his mark.Appalled by the spirit-crushing rhythms of the Workers life he fights to spread the light of God, and create a place where the soul can be nurtured.This is the story of how YMCA began this is our story.Commissioned by YMCA, Created by Saltmine Trust, The Soul in the Machine is a play for anyone who works for a living.
