Details

True 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.
