Eyes down for an ingenious, hilarious and totally original evening s entertainment of theatre and gambling! In Ricardo s Bingo Palace, under the startling gaze of Anna the Russian - all big hair, dangling earrings and towel-loads of make-up - you are invited to play Bingo. You get the chance to win upmarket prizes such as a plastic crocodile or a packet of dirty playing cards. You can also win money, but you may have to spend it on the drinks and snacks brought to your table by Ricardo s well meaning but somewhat disorganised staff. When the telephone rings, it is the signal of the start of a chaotic, intriguing and joyously funny story involving Ricardo, the Mafia, his multi-talented international staff, the audience and a very large sum of money. As the stakes get higher, so do the prizes, as the action hurtles towards an outcome which depends entirely on one member of the audience.
