An old firm favourite

WHAT happens when you lock up a Celtic fan with a Rangers fan on 'old firm day'?

Playing at Theatre at The Mill in Newtownabbey from October 7 to October 12, Des Dillion's acclaimed comedy drama Singing I'm No A Billy He's A Tim puts two rival football fans in a shared courtroom cell. This satire of '90-minute bigotry' finds the mismatched pair taking turns to watch the big match on TV through their cell door - a winning bet offers their only hope of paying their fines and getting out. As the terrible twosome bicker their way through every stereotype of 'Scotland's shame', only their jailer Harry's worries for a sick grandson can put their tribal rivalry into perspective.
