Has anyone on here seen this?

My other half and me are in two minds as to whether to go or not.

Would appreciate any feedback.

Hi Beth

Where did you find out about this? Is there a website to which you can refer us?

Thanks, Shy! Looks like it could be fun! Bethany, since they have taken the trouble to do a Merseyside comedy instead of bringing in something about some other locality, I would say it is a must-see. Go see it and then tell us what you thought of it!

I went to see this during its run at the Royal Court last year. I would definitely recommend it. It is hilarious. I believe the cast is unchanged and includes my favourite local actor Andrew Scofield. The fact that it is returning with another long run shows how popular it has been. There are not too many performances left now so I would book. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

I saw it on Saturday night and it is brilliant. I would definitely go and see it although if you are planning on going at the weekends then tickets are scarce.

Definitely a great night out.

If you do go then let us know what you think.

Just wondered if you knew about this forum for Andrew, it can be found here

Not signed up for it but I was talking to one of the girls who runs it on Saturday night and they said there was loads of photos etc on there.

Thought it might be of interest.

Thanks for that. I did not know about the next production he is in at The Royal Court and will be booking for that.

Tickets are only £10 on Mondays too, though as it's coming to the end of its run, I think there may only be one (maybe two?) Mondays left before it finishes.
Written by two ordinary lads from Kirkby who've been going to the Liverpool games practically forever.
Don't let that put the Evertonians off though.
Great stuff!

We used to have a laugh about that in work a few years ago, when a woman worked with us who had a deep hatred of those who came over from the Wirral and "stole our jobs". Ironically she had relations who lived in Liverpool and worked on the Wirral.

Our City magazine arrived today, and in the city's history there's an unfortunate wording:


The city's population continued to rise until the 1930's - the decade when the first Mersey Tunnel opened.


"...and it went downhill from there" :unibrow:

Great that it's coming back again.

Will have to get tickets to see it.

Has anyone heard how tickets are selling so far for this time round?
