OVERVIEW

  • Playwright

    Fionntán Larney 

  • Synopsis

    If every time you leave the house you try to have the most fun you've ever had, how do you know when to go home? A rap musical following two young men whose views on women, drugs, and each other collide and shatter. It's about "old friend" not meaning "good friend", "better person" not meaning "good person", "less misogynist" not meaning "not misogynist". It’s gonna be a hell of a party.
