Billy Wonderful
Billy is in the squad and it's wonderful. He's down the wing and he's flying. He doesn't believe in much, but he believes in this...in football. As the Blues and the Reds come out to play, it's D day for Billy...Derby Day.
But in the scramble for success, can Billy keep his head or will he fall foul of fame or fortune? Will those you step on the way up, catch you when you crash back down?
Nick Leather, one of the North-West's most prominent young playwrights, brings us a fast-paced coming of age story pulsing with all the excitement and physicality of Match Day. Catch it at home or away as the boys go off on tour around the city before playing the final tournament at the home ground.
After the success of Cruel Sea in 2007, the theatres once again tour the communities of Merseyside.
