A Fistful Of Mondays

Tom spends his evenings singing karaoke to an empty Walbersley Sports and Social Club, on its last legs. Not the most exciting existence and hardly making an effort to get back on the social scene since his divorce. His world and that of bar manager Barry are turned upside down by the arrival of The Monday Night All Star Linedancing Club, who use the club as rehearsal space in an attempt to drum up more business. Somehow, despite his lack of practise, Tom eventually stumbles his way into a romance with dance teacher, Annie, but this is soon in trouble as Tom faces his past demons and insecurities. The linedancing group encounter trouble of their own in the form of a traitor in their midst who splits the group and threatens their future as they prepare for a big linedancing weekend.

Balancing Act first produced A Fistful of Mondays at the OFS Oxford in 2009. This led to a UK number 1 Uk touring production of the play in 2011 (renamed Rhinestone Mondays) starring Shaun Williamson (Eastenders); two members of pop group Steps (H and Faye) and Lyn Paul (Blood Brothers/ New Seekers) This brand new revival of A Fistful of Mondays promises to recreate the energy and excitement that this show first generated with a classic country soundtrack and lots of linedance action.
