PRODUCTION INFORMATION
Meet team Barely Athletic. They’re part of the gay, lesbian and transexual football league in Hull. Luke wants Danny, but Danny has a secret. Joe is happy in goal but Geoff wants a headline gig. Viv just wants to beat the lesbians to the league title. Game on.
Jumpers for Goalposts is a blissfully funny romantic comedy about friendship and finding your way. This endearing and poignant play further confirms Wells’ reputation as one of the UK’s most outstanding young playwrights.
