About

At the height of World Cup fever, the multi-award-winning Why I Stuck a Flare Up My Arse for England comes to New York for the very first time. The show tells the true story of ardent football fan Billy Kinley, who sticks a flare up his bum at Euro 2020 and goes viral. What follows is a funny, raw, and disarmingly honest exploration of identity, loyalty, and belonging. Winner of multiple awards including Best Theatre and Physical Theatre Show at Adelaide Fringe 2025, and boasting over 50 five-star reviews, this is a show that has captivated audiences around the world. Don’t miss the final ever performances of this remarkable production. Bold. Sharp. Unforgettable. One flare. One man. One bum. One unmissable story.
