Coming Soon: The Party Spirit
By Peter Jones and John Jowett
You’ll never think of The Beehive or look at your local M.P. the same way again after seeing ‘The Party Spirit” in The Pumphouse Winter Programme.
Co-written by Peter Jones of “The Rag Trade” fame, the deviousness and machinations of politicians and lobbyists in a moon-cast House of Representatives are exposed in this outrageous and entertaining comedy. Will you be sure it couldn’t really happen ?
The leader and only Member of Parliament representing ‘Liberty Bill’s’ Party experiences maximum discomfort after he’s joined by the winner of a recent by-election. His dreams of having a private members’ Bill accepted for the betterment of his fellow-men seem doomed.
Just some of the other characters in the action are a permanent back-bencher, a lobbying constituent, a domineering member of the Opposition, a “friend” from the local cat-house, the Chief Whips and a secretary who also happens to be Liberty Bill’s fiancée.
Don’t miss the antics! See for yourself why the call of “Division” is enough to rouse any politician from a coma !
