Josh Blair was never any good at team sports, that is until he joins Validus Grammar and goes along for a rugby training session and he is hooked!

After four years of school rugby the medallion squad are through to the semi-finals of the Medallion Shield, but in the last few minutes of the game, something is not right, Josh is unsure about going back on, but his team need him, his school needs him, he needs this. Josh takes up his position on the pitch and stands in line, under the lights.

Themes include safety measures around concussion in contact sports.

'Under The Lights' by Maria Connolly, stars Belfast actor John Travers and will have its world premiere at The MAC Belfast in February 2025 followed by a short national tour of Northern Ireland. c21’s Company Manager Fionnuala Fagan-Thiébot will help produce and Stephen Kelly will complete the team by directing the new piece.
