Description
Stags and Hens is a bleakly funny study of working-class misogyny, puritanism and waste, set in the unglamorous surroundings of two Liverpool club toilets. Dave and Linda have made separate arrangements for their stag and hen parties, unaware of each other's plans. This updated edition includes a new introduction by the author, Willy Russell, who combines comedy with acrid truth to explore the herd instinct driving both sexes. The result is a lively, coarse and well-organised play that hits off brilliantly on its subject matter. First performed in 1978, Stags and Hens has been revived for new audiences, offering a truthful and very funny portrayal of working-class life.
