What are the odds of living an extraordinary life? This is the story of one boy's grandad who won a fortune betting on the 1966 World Cup and, when diagnosed with cancer, gambles it all on living to see the year 2000. This intergenerational tale by Gary McNair explores what we live for and what we leave behind, having toured the world since making its award-winning, sell-out world premiere at the Traverse in 2015. Now it's back home for a special run of shows to mark its 10th anniversary.
