The Monster in the Hall
TAG
A new play by David Greig, at the Citizens and touring in Autumn 2010.
Duck Macatarsney cares for her biker dad whose MS is getting increasingly bad. Her Dad - Duke - is a spliff smoking (for medicinal reasons you understand), bike riding, heavy metal loving, horror movie loving, pizza eating widower who’s brought up Duck since the death of her Mother in a crash. The two of them are just about surviving when one morning the Duke wakes up blind and the Duck hears that the Social Services are coming to take her away.
The Monster in the Hall follows Duck as she tries to protect her world from the terrifying prospect of change.
A low budget indie comedy musical about a girl on the verge of a nervous breakdown played out by four actors and a big fat motorbike which goes vrrooommm.
A new play from the same team that created the smash hit Yellow Moon (Best Show for Children and Young People TMA Awards 2007).

Hi there, I was wondering about booking this production "Monster In The Hall" to come to our school (Kinross High School, new Loch Leven Community Campus. I'd also be interested in offering some students the option of participating in the workshop. We have excellent brand new facilities here with a large assembly hall/theatre and plenty of accommodation to serve as Green Room/Dressing Room. Can you send me information and booking instructions? Thank you! Sincerely, L Moss
