Written and directed by John Godber and starring the double BAFTA and Olivier Award-winning partnership of John Godber and Jane Thornton, the Scary Bikers is a new comedy about life, love and staying on your bike!
The play was commissioned by Art 50 (Sky Arts) which invited responses to the triggering of Article 50 to leave the European Union. Its Liverpool premiere and one-night-only public performance takes place at Liverpool Hope University’s Capstone Theatre on Saturday 10th March, as part of Liverpool Hope University’s Cornerstone Arts Festival 2018.
When retired miner Don and former private school teacher Carol meet at a bereavement group, they thought they’d found a new beginning. But a bike ride through Europe would test their budding romance, and the road to love is rocky when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object.
The Capstone Theatre invites you to join Don and Carol on their hilarious and heartfelt journey, as they reconcile the past, debate the present and worry about the future. Whether they’re saddle sore in Southampton, blistered in Bordeaux or frazzled in Florence, one thing is for sure – it takes two to tandem!
Tickets for Scary Bikers are priced at £11.50 and can be booked online at Ticketquarter or by telephone on 0844 8000 410.
