Our city was more divided than ever and yet we were completely united in our love for the humble soda farl.

It's like a home-coming reading all those wonderful expressions so long forgotten and imagining characters that are so true to life.

Following the smash-hit musical Paperboy that had 2 sell-out runs at the Lyric Theatre Belfast in 2019 and 2018, this new witty, heart-warming show will explore Tony Macaulay's second memoir Breadboy. on my first Saturday, I nodded knowingly, but inside I was thinking, ‘How am I going to get up at six o’clock every Saturday morning?

An interesting read telling the story of a bright young teenager trying to find a way through life in the Upper Shankill, a Protestant working class area in Belfast. The King is dead - and even Big Duff, the hardest loyalist hard man on the whole estate has been seen to shed a tear. The Bee Gees fill the airwaves, everyone is in love with Princess Leia, and Breadboy's love of peace and pets is soon rivalled by his interest in parallel universes and punk. At first I enjoyed the power and novelty of being able to send out diddledee dings to the people of the Upper Shankill at five-minute intervals every Saturday morning. While other boys may have wanted to wear dark glasses like the brigadier in the UDA, I longed to wear a leather jacket like the Fonz in Happy Days, except my mammy wouldn’t let me.He has spent the past 35 years working to build peace and reconciliation at home and abroad, working with hundreds of youth and community groups to break down barriers of mistrust, hatred and division. There's all of the humorous and cringeworthy moments that many of us had whilst growing up along with many cultural and musical memories that many of us experienced during a decade that defined many of us at that time. He had thin brown hair combed to the side with Brylcreem and very clear white skin and rosy cheeks like a Free Presbyterian. The Wesco Breadboy classic design is made with a high-quality powder coated exterior, a steel body, an attractive chrome handle and a chrome base. In the summer of 2022 the same team produced a musical adaptation of the sequel, Breadboy, once again to sell out audiences in the Lyric Theatre in Belfast.
