Same Team at The Drake Theatre

Same Team, written by Robbie Gordon and Jack Nurse and directed by Kittson O'Neill, follows five women from vastly different walks of life who come together through a community-center soccer team representing Scotland at the Homeless World Cup. The cast features Asha Bagal Kelly, Leanna Doyle, Page Whitman, K. O'Rourke, and V. Sterling. The characters include Jo, The B, Noor, Lorraine, and single mother Sammy, each carrying her own burdens and ambitions as the team pursues an unlikely victory. Praised by Theatre Scotland as electric, compassionate, hilarious, and honest, the play explores resilience, dignity, and connection among women often left out of both sports narratives and social conversations.
