Dave Kirby (Brick Up The Mersey Tunnels, Lost Soul, Council Depot Blues, Reds & Blues) is back at The Court with the smash hit sequel to Lost Soul!
Smigger’s having a mid-life crisis. All he wants to do is roll back the years and dance to 70s soul music with Donna, Terry and Pat. But since the grandkid came along, Donna hasn’t been interested in their usual Sunday nights in town (or much else).
Their daughter hasn’t helped, lumbering them with the baby most weekends while she’s out with the dad. Well, maybe the dad (it’s a one in four chance). Smigger’s had enough, his head’s wrecked and he’s not having it any more.
Smigger, Donna, Terry and Pat will take us from Scottie Road to Pontins Prestatyn to Liverpool’s over-40s Sunday night pub scene for endless laughter set to a 70s soul soundtrack that will have you dancing out of the Royal Court and strutting straight down to Soul Train.
