BOUNCERS

Written by John Godber and directed by Sarah Webster, we presented Bouncers in the Sherborne Studio Theatre in September 2025. This social commentary on club culture is just as fresh and funny as it was when first performed in 1977. We joined our four alpha lads as they took us on a nostalgic trip back to the 1980s when disco was king, and neon colours and shoulder pads were the very height of fashion.

It's a play with plenty of humour yet it achieves some hard-hitting moments too, which are still very relevant today. The focus is on the larger-than-life main characters with their tough guy banter reminiscent of the decade that brought us Spandau Ballet, Die Hard and the 'mix tape'. Remember the 80s? Friday night was disco night – time for Bouncers to come alive.
