DESCRIPTION
“Glass bursts in stars, a shower of light, dust and ash, dust and ash, dust blooms, in a cloud of dust and glass.”
In town every Friday night, same time and place, Potts, Baron and Finch get ready for their weekly dose of MaccieDs, drinking and dancing. But their night out takes a terrifying twist when an explosion rocks the town centre, and a suspicious population points the finger. The lads think they might have spotted the bomber, but are they using the mysterious man in black as a scapegoat to hide a more disturbing truth?
Ali Taylor's poetic, high-energy play was one of the winners of Metamorphosis 08, the playwriting competition organised by the Churchill Theatre, Bromley, and the Ambassador Theatre Group. This was the first time the play was seen in the Northwest.
“This venue is ideally suited to showcasing emerging young talent and tonight was no exception…The direction was slick as were the performances.”

What to wear to open air theatre?
The best way to know what to wear to an open air theatre performance is to check on what the weather is doing, but always play it safe. If you can carry a coat in case things turn sour, then we’d always recommend doing so. Beyond that, wear anything you like to an open air theatre performance, though please ensure you wear something!
