Beating Berlusconi on the 7th May was so fabulous that we’re going to go and see it AGAIN, a culturepool first!
The fantastic script by John Graham Davies along with the stunning performance by Paul Duckworth (you will be blown away) makes for an amazing production that we just couldn’t miss out on giving the rest of the group a chance to see it.
Written by actor and Radio 4 playwright John Graham Davies, Beating Berlusconi tells the true story of Kenny Noonan’s extraordinary time in Istanbul during Liverpool’s 2005 European Cup victory when he found himself in the Milan VIP box for the 2nd half of the game, where Berlusconi and other VIPs were celebrating their team’s victory, prematurely as we all know. The play also follows the fortunes of Kenny as he matures from a teenage football fanatic into a mature family man, shaped by his relationships to his father, his wife and children, his friends, and, yes, to Liverpool Football Club.
But this is so much more than a football play, it's about growing up in Liverpool in the 70's, 80's, 90's and today. It's touching, funny, sad and uplifting and credit goes to John Graham Davies' writing but the major plaudits must go to culturepool favourite, Paul Duckworth, whose performance is so amazing you have to see it to believe it.
Following the play Writer John Graham Davies and actor Paul Duckworth will join culturepool to chat about the play.

John Graham Davies, writer of Beating Berlusconi says:
Culturepool was instrumental in helping to generate the word of mouth which enabled Beating Berlusconi to build audiences during our tour.
We sold out most of the last two weeks, due in no small part to Culturepool. The two after show discussions posed some interesting questions, and the enthusiasm of the Culturepool members was a real boost.
Thanks a lot

What a great event, even for a West Bromwich Albion fan!

Thanks very much for organising the night with Beating Berlusconi; Bronwyn and I were amazed by the performance and the extra insights afterwards (his skill as an actor was even more apparent when he revealed he is a Evertonian).

Thank you so much for organising the Beating Berlusconi event on Monday. It was great fun and some of the finest acting I have ever seen in Liverpool. The venue was great too I have never been there before.
