How does Russell present theme through his characters in ‘our day out’? Is Russell successful at communicating these themes to his audience. Willy Russell the author of Our Day Out has had his equal share of scrapes and he bases this onto some of his characters in our day out like the very unfortunate Carol Chandler who we see first out of the pupils and she has come to school with her school uniform which we read in the script doubles as her Sunday best clothes and a plastic bag with all her school stuff in and by this we can see that the youth of Liverpool in the late 1970’s because of the employment crisis which put 3 and a half million people out of jobs. With this we see that the first themes is presented Deprivation and isolation with Carol because it isn’t obvious that she has any friends and she is alone on her way to school and she is deprived of a school bag like the rest of the pupils and not even any proper Sunday best clothes because she has to use her school uniform.
