We got wind of the upcoming La Touche Players productions at The Teachers’ Club on d’Twitter. They’re two one-act plays kicking off next Tuesday (22nd) at 8pm and running nightly until Saturday 26th and we very much like the look of them.

Day to day, some of us wear suits, some of us wear snickers work wear and some of us just roll out whatever way we like. Every morning, before the 9 to 5 slog starts, in the privacy of the bathroom, we are all shirtless primal-screaming beasts, yawning into the mirror, covered in nature’s face warmer.
