About this Event
Two hate filled rival football fans
locked up in the same Pr*son cell
verbally lacerate each other while
their teams assemble for the derby
in the stadium nearby.
In this crucible, Billy and Tim vent
all their fears, bigotry, paranoia,
misconceptions and, most
significantly, the mutual loathing
that has shaped their whole lives.
The lads’ collision is not just a
matter of football rivalry, but a
very serious clash of cultures with
all the deep-seated bigotry that
that entails.
Face to face with the object of
their hatred, do they choose
to destroy each other or to
confront their demons and start
a dialogue towards some kind of
ceasefire?
A potent allegory for peace
processes all over the world,
Des Dillon’s extraordinary,
moving and hilarious “Singin’
I’m No A Billy, He’s a Tim”
speaks for any divided culture
where polarisation is inbred and
prejudice governs reason.
When drama is supposed to
reflect society, what better arena
than the sport that grips society
most?
“There’s more to football
than football”.
