Details

1920s musical. 'Oh, Chicago, this terrible city we love', sing the whole company as the Prologue to this pastiche of life in the 'windy city'. The Casino Club used to be the hottest night-spot in town, but, like its owner and its performers, it has seen better days. During one evening, we become involved with the feisty Miss Lola Latrobe, the owner; 'Fingers' Rafferty, the piano player, who used to be the best and Maxie Tortellini, the biggest hoodlum in town. Come and enjoy the strident, dramatic, exciting heartbeat that is Chicago in the days of prohibition, in the days of Jazz.' Seating is set round tables of 8 and audiences are encouraged to bring their own drinks and glasses (there is an off licence next door). The Night Maxie Tortellini Hit Big Lola Latrobe's website.
