Transport Theatre Company
Set in and behind the counters of a ticket office, what happens when you call to order tickets and also when no one phones?
Kelly Hart plays Cheryl the ‘dumb blond’ vamp of the office not always thinking before she speaks, hates it when customers disturb her concentration on the news items in glossy magazines ,with a soft spot for Derek the security guard. Kelly is also the playwright and I think this is a very creditable job.
Matthew Blanks is Adrian the gay prospective thespian in the office always preparing for auditions.
Jessica Thom is plain Pippa who’s preoccupation is her up-and-coming wedding and the man in her life but does he have a secret or two?
Gareth Morgan as Derek the security guard only pops in and out occasionally usually bearing gifts for Cheryl his ideal woman.
The final member of the cast is Louise Niven who appears as three vastly different customers.
Well written and performed this is a show with great promise, it is also a performance well worth seeing if you can get a ticket.
