God's Official Ticket Giveaway

A madcap football comedy starring legendary Irish actor Mick Lally, George McMahon and rising star Edwin Mullane.

Win a pair of tickets to God's Official for Tuesday May 4th..

Two football fans have just seen their side relegated after a referee disallowed a perfectly good goal, enabling the opposition to go down the other end and score. The referee’s decision is final... or is it?

The two lads decide to take matters into their own hands and kidnap the ref to force him to change his mind on the all important goal, with hilarious and unexpected consequences.

A madcap comedy, its theme is simple: To some people football is a matter of life and death, to others it is far more important than that…

From the writer of Kissing Sid James, Robert Farquhar’s God’s Official was the winner of the Spirit of the Fringe Award at The Edinburgh Festival.

Suggested as the perfect way to prepare for the World Cup - this is an evening of sporting comedy.

'You know a true comic playwright has arrived when the audience start laughing before the actors tell the jokes. The biggest theatrical buzz in Liverpool at the moment surrounds neither Willy Russell or Alan Bleasdale but a bloke called Bob Farquhar, whose celebrity has grown to be something of a cult.'
The Guardian

'God's Official is certainly a brilliant anarchic comedy filled with witty one-liners and great quips, but it is also much more than a simple rib-tickling play.'
Liverpool Echo

'this is a tremendous work, superbly acted. Ostensibly about football, God's Official is a powerful play about passion and commitment, a welcome relief in these wet and cynical times.' Culture Wars
