A Wonder Fools production
Same Team
Created with the women of Dundee Change Centre and Street Soccer Scotland
19 - 22 May 2027
Event details
Five women. Three weeks. One Scotland team. And far more than football at stake.
They’re off to Milan for the world’s biggest street football tournament. But first they have to survive eviction notices, bruised egos and everything else life keeps booting onto the pitch.
Fast, funny and full of matchday chaos, Same Team turns the theatre into a football stadium. You’re the crowd: tackles fly, tempers flare, and five very different women need to start playing for each other.
Bring the noise. No football knowledge required.
Co-created with the women of Dundee Change Centre and Street Soccer Scotland.
Developed, commissioned and world premiered by the Traverse Theatre.
