From his throne at the bar, Mr Yupa dispenses football wisdom. Behind the bar, the landlord puts a decaying world to rights. Come closing time, one grips the bar with whitening knuckles, the other clings to his pint for dear life. This is a comic and poignant story of absurdity, frustration, penalty shoot-outs and the turmoil that strikes when humdrum lives are held up for inspection. It is a vibrant and lyrical piece of work that uses text, choreography and an arresting soundtrack to uncover the drama in fleeting moments of banality.
