"A genuinely funny and even touching ensemble piece" - Edinburgh Fringe review, The Scotsman"
Moving, emotional, poignant, and best of all it makes you laugh..." - Chester Chronicle
Raising funds for St Luke’s Hospice as they go Cheshire Cats is a laugh out loud comedy play by Gail Young.
Camaraderie, frayed relationships and blisters are to be expected when a team of women from Cheshire decide to speedwalk their way to fundraising success in the London Moonwalk. But along the way this cleverly crafted comedy will not only have you laughing out loud but also feeling the deep emotion associated with the Moonwalk’s aim which is to raise money for breast cancer. In their decorated bras and posh new trainers the girls are up for the challenge, but when one of the team can’t make it, the substitute 6th member of the team doesn't exactly meet the physical criteria! At the end of the 13 miles of aching feet, heaving bosoms, friendships and tears, the walkers will have a stitch in their sides, but so too will the audience, from laughing out loud.
Tavonians Theatre Company are taking Cheshire Cats on tour in Devon and Cornwall, and raising funds for St.Lukes Hospice.
