It’s always nice to find other girls who are really into football. Sometimes you meet them in unexpected places – in a strip show, for example. Five girls present a hilarious account of why they are in the business (money, fun), what they’d rather do (cook), and how unappetising and unbearable the audience is (IT managers). That is, until they hear that the Wolves FC manager is present and willing to pay £1 million to the lucky girl he’ll choose to dance for his players. The competition starts, giving each actress a stage to show her fabulous entertaining, singing, and other skills. It’s a great little melange of red corsets, raunchy moves, reinterpreted songs and uproarious entertainment.
C aquila, 4 – 29 Aug (not 16), 9.30pm (10.20pm), £6.50 – £9.50, fpp253.

ED2011 Theatre Review: On The Bench (Class Stage Productions)
This wryly entertaining satire on the lifestyles of over-paid, over-sexed and over-exposed footballers entirely exceeds expectations. Inventive and thought-provoking, the all-female casting is far from gimmicky, and each skilled and...
