Falkirk’s Behind the Wall has hired four scary new doormen...but for one night only.

The four were putting the finishing touches to the characters they’re playing in a rib-ticklingly funny comedy in Larbert’s Dobbie Hall next week.

Described as “outrageous five-star X-rated hilarity”, Bouncers by John Godber is the tale of one Friday night in a Northern nightclub, with the non-stop action focusing on the exploits of the four men and their drunken customers.

In the tatty club we meet the raucous lager-swilling lads, the flirting, tipsy girls...even the smooth-talking DJ, the hairdresser, the late-night kebab man and many more. In all the talented quartet play over fifty different parts and handle a multitude of quick changes.

Tryst Theatre’s award-winning actors Jim Allan, Alan Clark, Brian Paterson and Brian Tripney play the four tough doormen.

Jim, who also directs, said: “A classic comedy about modern city nightlife, Bouncers is rude, crude and fantastically funny. It’s like watching four stand-up comedians as the jokes come thick and fast. And many thanks to Behind the Wall for letting us be trainee doormen for a night.”

Bouncers, which has strong language, will be staged in Larbert’s Dobbie Hall from December 8-10 at 7.30pm nightly. Tickets - £10 and £7 (concessions) - are available from the Tryst 24-hour booking line on 07597 981 949 or from the Box Office on 01324 715886.
