Directed by Paul falconer


Synopsis

 

Bouncers

Set in the 1980s at a Northern Night Spot, the play features the four doormen (or Bouncers) who play multiple parts to reflect the goings on at the club. Try imagining four beefy bouncers dancing round their handbags when discussing a hen party and you’ll have some idea of the kind of thing that will have you in stitches.

Shakers

It’s about four girls working it from 7 to 11pm at Shakers, a cocktail bar where they serve real duck liver pâté and some patrons order “pate”. No matter how frustrating it is to be seen as legs or racks by greasy ass-pinchers, our four Shakers girls, Carol, Adele, Mel and Nicky, simply smile and serve.
