One of the Lads

‘I curse, I spit, I scream, I distract from the stinging in my eyes and I smash a bottle over his head.’ 

Seamie would rather down a litre of paint-stripper then do yoga or talk about his feelings. But then the new Senior Men's coach Kev returns home from Down Under (with a shite tan and a bird from Carlow).

Exploring the concept of toxic masculinity in rural Ireland, One of the Lads is a humorous and thought-provoking story about escaping the expectations society places on us.
