The Liverpool Playhouse are dusting off their shag-pile carpet and Demis Roussos records to welcome the touring production of Mike Leigh’s Abigail’s Party from 25th-30th March.

Featuring Jodie Prenger in the role of Beverly, the production heads to Liverpool as part of a huge national tour.

Made famous by the B.B.C. Play for Today series in 1977, the classic comedy follows Beverly and her husband Laurence as they host a party for newly-wed neighbours Tony and Angela. Joined by highly strung neighbour Susan – banished from the party of her teenage daughter Abigail -the group revel in free-flowing cocktails, disco classics and pineapple and cheese on sticks.
