Mojo Mickeybo

Northern Ireland playwright Owen McCafferty brings us a story a friendship between two boys growing up in Belfast - a friendship that at first is immune to the sectarian violence taking place around them, but which nonetheless is ultimately destroyed by it.

Set during the summer of 1970, Mojo and his mate Mickybo are two nine-year-old boys from opposing sides of the sectarian divide. They are ‘thick as two small thieves’, playing headers, being mouthy, building huts, and spitting from cinema balconies. Hilariously funny and brilliantly devastating in equal measure, this two-hander sees a fantastic cast slip in and out of roles and imaginary worlds in a way that will leave you spellbound.
