Influence/Ambulance Chaser/Spent - T2996881True to its tradition of bringing audiences the best new work from the region, [Cloud Nine] presents a trio of bouncing brand new comedies from Northern writers, directed by Neil Armstrong. Influence by [Paul Buie] - A black comedy where nothing is what it seems, as a businessman turns the tables on a cat burglar discovered in his warehouse. Paul Buie took first prize in the Customs House 2005 Comedy Writing Festival with Jump You Bastard. Ambulance Chaser by [Simon Moore] Our US-style compensation culture sharply satirised via the loathsome (but hugely funny) solicitor Tram, and his female side-kick Bird,as an enormous scam goes enormously wrong. Spent by [Sarah Millican] Alzheimer's wasn't meant to be funny. Except in this bitter-sweet comedy of doomed relationships written in a seductively offbeat style.Author Paul Buie (Influence). Author Simon Moore (Ambulance Chaser). Author Sarah Millican (Spent). Director Neil Armstrong. | |
