Duston Players were pleased to find out they were the first to do this rather unusual play and even more pleased when the Author, Paul Hedge, travelled up from Devon to see the play on the last night.
The Play centred around Baggy, an Eton educated sixties dropout, and his invisible friend Malcolm, who are living rough with the vagrants of "Cardboard City" near Waterloo Station.
When Lisa, a young girl new to the road appears, Baggy decides with the help of female vagrant Blossom Trolley, to try and persuade Lisa to return home. Meanwhile a mysterious stranger arrives looking for a lost relative just as a serial killer starts murdering Baggy's colleagues one by one. The play has a surprising twist at the end which should leave you thinking.
