MsFits Theatre Company Return with Hilarious New Show Stick Granny on the Roof Rack!

The Met welcomes back The MsFits Theatre Company on Wednesday 9 May at 7.30pm.

“Holiday of a lifetime”, Marie won it on a scratch card, “Sun, sea, sand, an exotic island paradise”.  The winning card said it all, the heaven… “an all expenses paid fortnight in a luxury hotel” and the hell… ‘”for all the family”!

The family, Katy, Marie’s daughter, teenager with attitude, Graham, Marie’s husband once the love of Marie’s life, now 15 years past his sell by date… and his Mum!  It’s a once in a lifetime experience all right, an experience that will change their lives!  Take one everyday family, heat to 36 degrees, cover in suntan oil, leave in hired car to cook, then stand back and watch, as years of family tensions boil over in a hilarious mix of laughter and tears.

What is Katy’s secret?  Why does Mum end up behind bars?  Who stole Gran!?  Find out with Fiona Knowles as she takes you on a one woman comic, compassionate catastrophe of family relationships in Stick Granny on the Roof-Rack.

The MsFits Theatre Co are award winning actress Fiona Knowles (acclaimed for her virtuoso performances in MsFit plays incl Sex & Chocolate, Women on the Verge of a T Junction, Fur Coat & Magic Knickers, Women Behaving Madly & Mad Bad & Dangerous to Know) and award winning playwright Rona Munro (Dr Who script writer and has written commissions for the RSC, NTS, Traverse Theatre, Manchester Royal Exchange, Hampstead Theatre & The Edinburgh International Festival).

Tickets are £10, £8 concessions. To book please call the ticket office on 0161 761 2216 or go online www.themet.biz
