Notes: | By Catrina McHugh and the company | |||||
Synopsis: | Bursting onto the stage with a dance routine to make Girls Aloud quiver, the all-female cast introduce the show as if speaking to waiting customers in a beauty salon, a novel technique that was lapped up by the audience. It is set during the run up to Joanne's (a loud but lovable beauty therapist) wedding and takes us through all the trials and tribulations that come with it - a manic, interfering mother, a stroppy teenage bridesmaid and a dress maker who has inconveniently sliced the tops of her fingers off whilst working on the cheese counter at Fenwicks. But all of this is brought into harsh reality as we hear the heart-wrenching tale of Maryam, an asylum seeker who has stepped in to save the day as stand in seamstress at the same time as she battles to keep herself and her children in the UK and far away from the horrors they were subjected to in Iran. | |||||
