Book NowAbout the show
Singin' I'm No a Billy Jr, He's a Tim Jr – Young Offenders is a 75-minute contemporary comedy theatre piece by NLP Theatre Company, performed at the Lomond. Written by Des Dillon, the play locks a Celtic ultra and a Rangers ultra in a prison cell on the day of the big match. Through their explosive confrontation, the show delights, entertains and educates on the religious origins of the Celtic-Rangers conflict. Beneath its humour, it explores bigotry and ethnic identity on both a small and large scale, tracing the generational repercussions of Catholic and Protestant strife. Suitable for audiences aged 12 and over.
Why see this show?
Lock two football ultras in a prison cell on match day and something unexpected might happen: understanding. Des Dillon's play earns its laughs while asking serious questions about identity, religion, and inherited conflict. Thought-provoking comedy theatre at its most direct.
