Me and Me Dad

Tuesday 23 and Wednesday 24 February 2010 at 7.30pmhull_truck

Written by Nick Lane.

Presented by Hull Truck Theatre

A story of friendship, fish pie and flick-to-kick football. Andy Green’s dad needs a recipe for toast. He thinks that tortilla fought King Kong and that Tiramisu played midfield for Brazil in the 1974 World Cup. In short, he’s rubbish. Good at Subbuteo; hopeless with spaghetti. So when Andy’s mum dies, Andy does the decent thing - he takes a month off work and moves back home with his dad to teach him how to cook. Fighting memories - and occasionally each other - and risking the sanity of friends and neighbours, not to mention Andy’s new girlfriend, the pair boil pans, set grills on fire and worse in an attempt to prevent a diet of pickled beetroot and jam sandwiches (not necessarily in that order). Can their relationship survive? Or is this a one kitchen nightmare even Gordon Ramsay couldn’t fix?

A brand new bitter sweet comedy from the writer of My Favourite Summer (“Blissfully funny”- Daily Telegraph) and Blue Cross Xmas (****- What’s On Stage).

“Right now, no Yorkshire playwright is writing with more affectionate humour, comic punch and lovable cheek than Lane.” Charles Hutchinson, York Press
