"Matthew, I don’t give a fuck who’s Irish and who’s not. I’m just thinking about what’s best for your career. And that’s how themmuns in London’ll see you. Calling yourself British just embarrasses them"
The morning after his father’s funeral, an unsure and still griefstricken Matthew prepares to fly to London to audition for the prestigious drama school, RADA
When his painter-decorator Uncle Ray interrupts his private rendition of Richard III’s opening monologue to offer some unwanted direction and dubious career advice, Matthew starts to doubt whether he should really be leaving Belfast in the first place
A sharply written, heartfelt comedy about the past, identity and moving on
