Written by Pulitzer Prize-winning Egyptian Irish American playwright Stephen Adly Guirgis in 2011, The Motherf**ker with the Hat is centred around human bond, loyalty and honour.
Jackie, an alcoholic fresh out of prison, is looking for a new job in the hopes of settling down with his childhood sweetheart and fellow addict, Veronica. However, the sight of a mysterious hat on the bedroom table sends Jackie spiralling.
Unfurling the relationships he holds between his AA sponsor and his cousin Julio, Jackie is tested as he uncovers buried secrets and is forced to look hope squarely in the eye.
