It's the EURO 2020 Final at Wembley and Billy's gone viral for sticking a flare up his Ar**! Why I Stuck A Flare Up My Ar** For England is a blisteringly funny new play about football, flares and mateship that comes to Adelaide after a sell-out, five-star Edinburgh run. Billy and his best pal Adam are die-hard football fans. It's their escape, their religion and their life. But when they encounter a new group of mates, they take their support one step further. "
