Whitley Bay Operatic Society presents
The Full Monty
Whitley Bay Playhouse
Wednesday 15th - Saturday
18th February 2017
Seeing
how much their wives enjoy watching male strippers during their Girls’ Night
Out, unemployed steelworkers in Buffalo, New York come up with a bold way
to make some quick cash. In the process they find renewed self-esteem, the
importance of friendship and the ability to have fun. As the guys work through
their fears, self-consciousness, feelings of worthlessness and anxieties (over
everything from being overweight to child custody, bigotry to being gay), they
come to discover that not only are they stronger as a group, but that the
strength they find in each other gives them the individual courage to face
their demons and overcome them. There is great heart to The Full Monty, and the
ultimate themes expressed in the show, about taking charge of one’s life and
following one’s dreams are great lessons for all of us.
And
truth be told, through creative directing and staging, the final impact of The
Full Monty can be achieved without ever losing your jockey shorts!
