About this Event
The sectarian prejudices of 1994 Northern Ireland are challenged in an arena even more impassioned than politics: football. This brilliant and piercingly funny one-man play demonstrates how tolerance is possible even in the face of our most entrenched rivalries…. Alan Smyth gives an electrifying performance of this compelling, comic, and profoundly hopeful story from Irish playwright Marie Jones
The multi-award winning one-person play, set in Northern Ireland, centers on Kenneth McCallister, a bored protestant dole clerk who, after witnessing the hatred and bigotry of his own community, sets out on a voyage of discovery and redemption. Racism, sectarianism, belonging and soccer collide in this often hilarious and deeply moving examination of unconscious bias, and national identity.
