It’s the glitziest night of the year, and everyone wants to be there, from the great to the good.
The Bentleys are parked, the jazz band has arrived, and the magician is magic; so pick up your invite for this fundraising frenzy.
But behind the bow ties and fake tans there are jealousies and avarice, divorces and affairs. This is upstairs meets downstairs through a drunken gaze.
The raffle is ready, the coffee is cold, the service is awful, the guest speaker is drunk and the hard-pressed caterers just want to go home.
By turns satirical and touching, John Godber turns his laser gaze onto the Black Tie Ball in all its sophisticated pomp.
Told in his signature visceral style, this hilarious comedy sees the hotel staff recount an entire evening at breakneck speed from arrival at seven to carriages at midnight.
Being short-staffed has never been so funny!
