Direct from the West End Whipping It UpWestminster runs the country, but the whips run Westminster. Following its recent successful run in the West End, Whipping It Up comes to Glasgow. Much loved actor Richard Wilson star of the hugely successful TV series One Foot in the Grave and Born and Bred, brings his theatrical talent to Steve Thompson's scandalously funny satire which blows the lid off the despatch box and reveals the true secrets locked in the whips' safe. The new Tory government is facing dissent over its latest Bill. With a majority of only three, the whip's office is out in full force, and they'll stop at nothing to keep the stray in line. But they're in for a long night, with sexual blackmail, boy scouts rioting in Whitehall, the PM golfing with the president and five Tory rebels on the loose -could this be the beginning of a leadership challenge? Full of razor-sharp writing, this skilfully crafted satire paints a cutting and hilariously funny picture of behind the scenes at Westminster - not to be missed. Suitable ages 15+. Contains some strong language. Groups Discount Available Subscribe and Save! Best Discount for Friends Like This? Try This! Running Time |
