Stags and Hens

Stags and Hens was originally conceived as an in-house television piece for Manchester Polytechnic's television and drama students in 1978 when Willy held the Chair in Creative Writing.

The play focuses on a group of girls and local lads who venture out for a night of pre-marriage stag and hen party celebrations. The action takes place in the Gents and Ladies loos of a tacky Liverpool club, Bransky's, where Dave and Linda (bride and groom-to-be) have decided, unbeknownst to each other, to hold their stag and hen parties.
