Steve Kimmens: Ange Postecoglu is my Dad

“Ange Postecoglu is my Dad” is a charming comedy about football, family and delusional hope. A show about finding your father in the last place you would look – managing your favourite team.

Steve Kimmens has been a die-hard fan of Tottenham Hotspur since childhood. A club forever snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. So much so, they invented a word for it – being ‘spursy’. Tottenham’s few moments of glory are but a fading memory.

Enter the unexpected messiah – Australian Ange Postecoglou, who’s been tasked with the Herculean effort to revive the club’s fortunes. But for Steve, the new manager’s arrival is more than just fresh hope for the fans; it’s the startling revelation that Ange might just be the father he never knew he had.

What if Ange – a man known for his revolutionary tactics, charismatic leadership and no-nonsense antipodean charm – was, in a twist of fate and fantasy, your long-lost father?

“Ange Postecoglou is my Dad” is a heartwarming, hilarious, journey through the convoluted corridors of football fandom, family bonds, and the often ridiculous, but always hopeful, quest for heroes in the unlikeliest of places. Steve holds the audience’s hand through an uproarious ride that combines the love of the beautiful game with the universal search for connection, identity, and the meaning of fatherhood.

As Ange would say, “It’s for everyone, mate, even if you don’t like football.”
