THE brilliantly innovative theatre company Stan’s Café take inspiration from the people behind the Midlands’ motor industry to create their latest performance in The Nuffield’s Studio Bar on Tuesday and Wednesday.
It is 3006 and underground. In a disused factory, sheltered from the raging weather, an investigation into global warming and its causes is underway.
The prosecution and defence teams lost focus and power generations ago, procedurse have gone out of the window and the irregular has become highly regular.
Today the enquiry will continue to learn the legends of a place called The West Midlands, the people who lived there and the mythical things they once made called cars.
Based on interviews with former Rover employees who lost their jobs when the Longbridge plant closed, Home Of The Wriggler is Stan’s Cafe’s unique take on the Midlands’ motor industry set in a world where the oil ran out a long time ago… Don’t miss this thoughtful, poetic and playful show, which asks who makes the sandwiches, cleans the clothes, cuts the hair and teaches the kids of those who shape the parts, that make the cars, that fill the Midland’s roads.
