Synopsis: | Liverpool, 1960. A two-week strike by both dockworkers and seafarers has paralysed the port, and against a backdrop of picketing, marches and jailings one local family plays out the changing times. They're the McDermott's Dad Ronnie's on the docks, Son Jack's on the ferries and Mum Jean and her sister Denise are in the council offices. While local Union leader Paddy Neary is carted off to Brixton Jail, the McDermott's fight, laugh, sing and lie their way in and out of a time when post-war austerity was giving way to a decade of change. 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. Jack croons the classics, Ronnie sings skiffle and beat and Mum belts out the old bawdy sailor's songs. Keep the noise down, love, Z-Cars is on. | |||||
