Billy Wonderful

A programme text edition published to coincide with the world premiere at the Everyman Theatre, Liverpool, on 12 March 2009.

Billy is in the squad and it's wonderful. He's down the wing and he's flying. He doesn't believe in much, but he believes in this ... in football. As the Blues and the Reds come out to play, it's D-Day for Billy ... Derby Day.

But in the scramble for success, can Billy keep his head or will he fall foul of fame and fortune?

Nick Leather, one of the North West's most prominent young playwrights, brings us a fast-paced coming of age story pulsing with all the excitement and physicality of Match Day.
