The Pitch
Moya Jane Productions, Lyric Belfast and Pleasance
Pleasance Courtyard
5–31 Aug (not 12, 20, 29)
Robbie is a sports-mad Belfast boy. When his favourite pitch is refurbished into a Gaelic football ground, he sees it as an invasion of his culture. But for GAA player Deren, it's a chance to play the sport he loves, in the home where it was never accepted. As Robbie's sister, Melissa, starts playing Gaelic football in school, and a United Ireland referendum looms, can all three of them find common ground? A fast-paced, energetic and laugh-out-loud Belfast story, which celebrates the country's favourite sport and asks the growing question: will Ireland ever be re-unified?
