ONCE A YEAR ON BLACKPOOL SANDS Comes to the Davenport Theatre This September

The story of a real-life love affair between two Yorkshire miners is coming  off-Broadway at the Davenport theatre 4th-9th september  and being made into a film in co-production with human element film. Once a Year on Blackpool Sands is written by Karlton Parris and presented by Manchester-based theatre company Skint Productions. Set in Blackpool 1953, before homosexuality was legal in the UK, this real-life gritty Northern LGBTQ comedy focuses on Eddy and Tommy, as they head to Blackpool for their annual wakes week holiday. The lads check into the surprisingly empty Withering Heights on Sea guest house, run by the caustic and alarmingly odd Gladys, her rebellious and very flirty daughter Maureen and the infamous Red Ethel, ex-communist stripper show girl.  Upstairs the only other guest Mr Elbridge is trying to muster the courage to unleash any of his three female alter egos and walk the fabled transvestite walk from north to south pier as a woman.
