Comedy in the vein of Calendar Girls and Stepping Out is promised on May 8/9 at St George's Hall in Bradford.

* Bouncers was one of the first hit comedies by John Godber back in the 1980s.

Now another writer, Joe Mills, looks at what happened to those four nightclub bouncers.

Two became removal men, one is a lollipop man and another is a wrestler in Wigan.

They reunite in the "riotous and cleverly constructed" comedy Bouncing Back.

Mills shows that the working-class British are at their bawdy best wreaking havoc on the continent.

See Bouncing Back at the * Alhambra Studio on April 24-26. Book at Keighley town hall or phone 01274 432000.
