Stags and Hens The Remix 13-16 May 2026
It’s always a bittersweet moment as the set from the previous show is taken down, and is replaced by new decor…this time, there’s the transition from a smart London flat to a Liverpool nightclub! Author Willy Russell said, “Uniquely for a play of mine, Stags & Hens began with the idea for its setting. I was aware of existing plays set in club-land – in bars and on dance-floors – but none that had ever dared to locate its action in the ladies and gents toilets…where I knew from my own attempts at a misspent youth, that on nights such as this, all the really crucial stuff, the juicy stuff, the scandal, the plotting, the dreams and hopes and defeats and failures and fights – all of this got aired not out there on the dance-floor but, respectively, in the ladies and the gents.” The process of transition and set build has started for our stage – can’t wait to see the new set!! Make sure you get good seats for the show by booking now: Stags and Hens the Remix by Willy Russell. (NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN). at Quarndon Village Hall event tickets from TicketSource
