Overview
Synopsis
What happens when you lock up a Celtic fan? What happens when you lock up a Celtic fan with a Rangers fan? What happens when you lock up a Celtic fan with a Rangers fan on the day of the Old Firm match? Des Dillon creates the situation and watches the sparks fly as Billy and Tim clash in a rage of sectarianism and deep-seated hatred. When children have been steeped in bigotry since birth, is it possible for them to change their views? There are no easy answers, but this play rises to that challenge. It's time to end Scotland's shame. Join Billy and Tim on their journey of discovery. Are you singing their tune?
Editor's Note: This play contains very strong language.
