man has “fallen” to his death
from a window whilst in police custody. Accidents
happen, but did he jump or was he pushed?

BLOOD
WEDDING (Playhouse) |
|
| Monday
24th November to 29th 2008 - 7.30pm |
| A
love-triangle cursed with desire, desperation
and death in this classic masterpiece telling
the true story of a bride who must decide
between the lover she desires and the one

the killer tension of Lorca's poetry in this
highly physical production from Cut to the
Chase. (back

In
a magical land far far away
T’was
Birkenhead so the rumours say
There lived a woman named old Mother goose
Who had the heart of an ox but the face
of a moose.
She fell in love with Mighty King Bling
And when he strut his stuff they soon had
a thing.
But they fell out terribly all those years
ago
And ever since then Ma let herself go
Then a golden goose came to stay
And all Mas’ troubles did fade away
For the bird held the key to eternal beauty
And could turn Ma Goose into a right old
cutie…
Ma Goose is hot it’s really smoking!!!
Bring you brollys for a right good soaking
But we’ll need your help to right
the wrongs
Shout, boo and cheer and join in the songs.
Shake your bootie and swing your maracas
If you miss out on this… your just
plain quackers! . (back
