'Shakers Re-Stirred' | 25th July - 1st August 2020

Every town has a Shakers the oh so trendy cocktail bar where everyone wants to be seen. From the check-out girls to the chinless wonders, from the yuppies to the local lads tittering at the thought of a “Long Slow Comfortable Screw”. We are given a wickedly funny glimpse into this world by the four-long suffering waitresses – Adele, Carol, Mel and Nicky - offering a fascinating view of the reality that lurks behind the plastic palms and Pina Colada in this revised version of the ever-popular original play Shakers, first performed in 1985. It was “re-stirred” with this version in 1991, and 29 years on, the proof that very little changes is laid bare, the characters are still recognisable, still hanging around trendy bars, still telling the same old jokes, still sniggering at anything that can be given a sexual overtone, they are still offering to give waitresses one, still telling wives they are working, still playing away – still ordering seafood pasta...
