Whipping It Up

‘Whipping It Up’ is a biting parliamentary comedy.

There’s a Conservative government with a tiny majority and the Whips are deploying every trick in the book. They’re bribing and bullying to secure the votes the party needs. And in a world of double-crossing who knows what’s truth and what’s tactic? Come along and enjoy this Westminster romp, exposing the macho politicking of our treasured democracy. • Is there a leadership challenge afoot? • Why is the vitriolic Chief Whip dressed as Santa? • Who’s sending love tokens to the pretty government researcher? • Whatever made the Scouts start pelting MPs with marshmallows? • And, ultimately, will the Tory ‘chaps’ suffer the indignity of being outsmarted by a woman?

Please note: This play contains politicians – and thus a risk of provocative attitudes and plentiful swearing.
