Singin I'm no a Billy. He's a Tim - 20th Anniversary Tour, by Des Dillon.
What happens when on the day of the Old Firm Match, you lock up a Celtic and Rangers fan in a cell together?
Fireworks! And a weird kind of unity.
A play exploring bigotry and ethnic identity, Singin’ I’m No a Billy, He’s a Tim is a phenomenon in Scotland where it has sold out countless nationwide tours, a sensation at the Edinburgh Festival and now touring Internationally.
With Scott Kyle (Outlander, Angels Share, Kajaki and Winner of Stage Award for Acting Excellence), Colin Little (River City, Fried, Gasping, The Secret Agent) and James Miller.
When tribal factions clash can reason ever prevail?
A play exploring bigotry and ethnic identity, Singin’ I’m No A Billy, He’s A Tim is a phenomenon in Scotland where it has sold out countless nationwide tours, a sensation at the Edinburgh Festival and now touring Internationally.
Written by Des Dillon and Directed by Stephen Cafferty. With Scott Kyle (Outlander, Angels Share, Kajaki and Winner of Stage Award for Acting Excellence), Colin Little (River City, Fried, Gasping, The Secret Agent) and James Miller.
"This is as powerful a piece of comedy as any else on the fringe".
"One of the most successful theatre shows Scotland has ever seen."
“The sheer vitality of the theatrical writing – the seamless combination of verbal wit and raw kinetic energy, and the pure dynamic strength of the play’s structure – makes Stephen Cafferty’s production, with two outstanding performances from Colin Little and Scott Kyle, feel like one of the shortest and most gripping two-hour shows in current Scottish theatre.”
"Excellently explored by truthful, touching, funny performances and highly coloured writing. Relevant, memorable, and emotive, this show both enlightens and entertains."
