Strippers

Strippers
Written by Peter Terson
Directed by John Hart
7 – 12 May 2007

Inspired by a television documentary, Peter Terson’s play looks at the world of the North-East England strippers, centring on Wendy and Bernard, a young couple whose lives are up-ended when Wendy turns, reluctantly, to stripping to support the family after Bernard is made redundant. Although Bernard quite happily watches the ‘exotic dancers’ over a couple of pints at the club, when it comes to his own wife it’s a different matter.
