The Boys We Were
Power Talent LTD
Once (kinda) adored. Now they’re older, skinter, and meeting in a function room that smells like stale beer and bad decisions.
When a reunion opportunity lands in the laps of a washed-up boyband, old rivalries quickly resurface. Lee wants nothing to do with it. Ry sees a chance to stay relevant. Daz isn’t convinced anyone wants to see them anymore. And Jay, the one who actually made it, seems to be hiding something.
But as the drinks flow and the cracks begin to show, one confession changes the room completely.
The Boys We Were is a sharp, funny and unexpectedly moving new comedy-drama about friendship, masculinity, faded fame, and what happens when the best days of your life might already be behind you.
Set in the North of England and packed with humour, heart and brutal honesty, this is a story about the people we used to be, the ones we pretend not to miss, and whether it’s ever too late to rewrite the ending.
