Presented by Wallaby Blue Company and STATE OF PLAY

The excitement, sweat, and energy of a night out at the footy meets the bright lights, hilarity, and deep drama of a classic FRINGE WORLD show - FootyBoy is perfect for the whole family from teens to retirees. Follow The Dolphins AFLall club in a world of mixed gendered professional sport, and a 'knock' that allows James to communicate with a higher voice of support that he’s never heard before.

James loves footy and he’s one of the best players the league has ever seen. Of course he is! So was his Dad. Bill Chappell put the Dolphins Footy Club on the map! An inspiration to everyone. But he left behind a destructive legacy that not a lot of people knew about. A negative voice that makes James stumble when he needs to stand.  

The team doesn’t know what to do when James can't find his form. Hands is a supportive captain, but her abilities to make him better can only go so far. Cox wants him off the team, and Butter…well they’re just happy to be here, easy to work with!

Will the higher voice of support be enough to help James in the biggest moment? The Grand Final!!

Through high energy movement pieces, a heart-racing original soundtrack, side splitting gags that’ll have you cackling all the way to the car and a reflective, emotionally nuanced script, FootyBoy is a story about the community of the game, the pressure we’ve all felt to live up to high expectations, and the self-worth we tie to success, encompassing the essence of football beyond the limits of gender.
