Sex & Docks & Rock 'N' Roll - SOLD OUT! November 30, 2010

Tickets £9.00 / £7.00 concessions.

Set in 1960's Liverpool during a dockworkers and seafarers strike, the play looks and laughs at this changing world through the microcosm of one terraced house where the TV does battle with the upright piano. Against a backdrop of picketing, marches and jailings one local family, the McDermotts, fight, laugh, lie and sing their way through these challenging times fuelled by home-brewed banana beer and a tea-chest bass. Jack croons the classics, Jerry sings skiffle and beat, and Mum belts out the old bawdy sailor's songs. "Keep the noise down, love, Z-Cars is on."

It's history with choruses you can sing along to with Red Ladder reconnecting noisily witha great tradition of radical, political and entertaining theatre.
