‘Basra Boy’ by Rosemary Jenkinson
Roddy McCorley Social Club, Mon 6th Aug - Thurs 9th Aug, 8pm
Another Irish premiere from Brassneck Theatre Company that
brought you ‘A Night With George’ and ‘1981’. Speedy and Stig
have been best friends since their first slingshots and proudly
march with the East Sons of Ulster flute band. But now Stig
wants to leave Speedy’s dead-end street fights to fight in
Afghanistan. What will become of this friendship forged in the
backstreets of Belfast? In this extraordinary high-octane, rollercoaster
piece of theatre, we are propelled through the ups and
downs of two young boys poised on the cusp of adulthood.
