“It’s not about love. It’s not about kismet. It’s not about any of those things. It’s just business”
Welcome to Liverpool. The world in one city.
Macey’s a working girl with three kids.
Mohammed and his new friends brush up their troubadour act and keep their heads down. Jimmy’s found a lucrative new line.
Cliff’s taking refuge in old Judy Garland numbers.
And Sam? Nobody’s going to get in Sam’s way.
This first full-scale production of Tony Green’s work is a rich fabric of interlocking stories where hope blurs with survival, love with commerce, and sometimes kindness can be found in the strangest of places.
