A world premiere and prestigious curtain-raiser for the 2009 Manchester International Festival this extraordinary new show will be devised by director and actors in rehearsal at the Exchange and tell a colourful story set in the vivid world of North West Bingo Halls. The director is already promising to re-design the Exchange’s famous in-the-round auditorium - removing some of the seats and replacing them with Bingo Hall tables and chairs to allow some of the audience to play along as part of the action. Rumours are also rife as to casting, with an 'iconic North West comic' said to be lined up to play the central role of 'Bingo Caller'.
