To mark the 60th anniversary of the death of Spurs & Scotland legend John White we are putting on a play telling his extraordinary story.

by The Ghost of White Hart Lane in London, Greater London, United Kingdom

John White was part of Spurs' 61 double winning side but in July 1964 he was tragically hit by lightning and killed at the age of just 27.

To mark the 60th anniversary of his death his story is being staged first at the iconic Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and then close to his childhood home at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival

We need your help to share this extraordinary story. 

John White's son Rob was just 5 months old when his father was killed, The Ghost of White Hart Lane tells both father and son's stories. The play follows on from the Sunday Times best seller The Ghost of White Hart Lane : In Search of My Father The Football Legend by Rob White & Julie Welch.
