Transforming the Beautiful Game: The Clyde Best Story celebrates the extraordinary life and legacy of Bermudian legend Clyde Best — the first Black football superstar of the modern television era in England and a pioneering figure whose influence later helped shape the early growth of professional soccer in the United States. Facing open racism while performing at the highest level of the game, Best not only broke barriers but excelled, scoring 58 goals in 218 appearances and becoming a symbol of resilience, excellence, and change. Together, they reflect on Best’s impact across generations and continents, and on football’s ongoing journey toward greater inclusion and equity. The project is supported by Gosling’s and Miller Insurance, with backing from the Bermuda Football Association and the Government of Bermuda. www.sadlerswells.com/whats-on/the-clyde-best-storyLondon shows:Wednesday, March 25: Sadler’s Wells [email protected]Thursday, March 26: Sadler’s Wells [email protected]Friday, March 27: Sadler’s Wells [email protected]Saturday, March 28: Sadler’s Wells [email protected]Sunday, March 29: Lumiere Cinema, Romford@2pm & 7pm
