...for the football lover in your life…

Fresh from ecstatic reviews and a huge word-of-mouth following in 2011, Paul Duckworth and his thirty-five characters take to the road again in this hilarious, lump in your throat comedy.

Despite threats from his wife and bank manager, in May 2005 Kenny Noonan travels to Istanbul to watch Liverpool play AC Milan in the Champions’ League Final. He carries the scars of thirty years as a Red - Heysel, Hillsborough - and of living in a city which has been demonised.

BEATING BERLUSCONI! is based on the now famous true story of a real Liverpool fan that ended up sitting next to Silvio Berlusconi at the Attaturk Stadium.

What happened to Liverpool FC in the second half is legend. What happened to Kenny in the AC Milan directors’ box is stranger than fiction.

Last chance to see this show! Cult football comedy Beating Berlusconi! This is the Final tour.

“A punchy piece of popular theatre that wears its passions on its sleeve - a show with balls, in more ways than one” The Guardian
