About the event

John and Jeremy own a bar. Once their father’s, it now belongs to these two hunks of meat: the manliest men in town. With the help of a waitress, this team of three run the bar on lip-syncing, line-dancing and 7am pints. That is, until a name from the past shows up in town after years.

Now, the truth about why he left is about to come out... Join an all-female cast in a geographically ambiguous US town in the 80’s, as they charm you with their impressive facial hair and ability to down a pint of Budweiser.

This production is staged by Edinburgh University Theatre Company, and stars three LLC students and graduates:

  • Ava Godfrey (Religious Studies & English Literature)
  • Nina Ceretti (English Literature and History)
  • Bella Burgess (English Literature MA Hons, 2026)
